Joe, can you identify why checkpatch does not detect missing Kconfig
help text is this simple case?

Original patch here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211028101840.24632-11-andrea.merello@xxxxxxxxx/raw

checkpatch is counting the diff header lines that follow the config entry.
Maybe this is clearer (better?) code:

Hey Randy/Andi.

I like this patch below a bit more.

It shows the Kconfig context block in the output message and
documents the code a bit more.

Care to test it again?
