ieee1394: Kconfig menu touch-up 

Rename and reorder some prompts and modify some help texts.
The result:

  -------------------- IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support --------------------
  *** Enable only one of the two stacks, unless you know what you are doing ***
  New FireWire stack, EXPERIMENTAL
    OHCI-1394 controllers
    Storage devices (SBP-2 protocol)
  Stable FireWire stack
    OHCI-1394 controllers
    PCILynx controller
    Storage devices (SBP-2 protocol)
      Enable replacement for physical DMA in SBP2
    IP over 1394
    raw1394 userspace interface
    video1394 userspace interface
    dv1394 userspace interface (deprecated)
    Excessive debugging output

The old prompts for reference:

If you say Y here, you will get very verbose debugging logs from
the subsystem which includes a dump of the header of every sent
and received packet. This can amount to a high amount of data
collected in a very short time which is usually also saved to
disk by the system logging daemons.
Enable this driver if you have an IEEE 1394 controller based on the
OHCI-1394 specification. The current driver is only tested with OHCI
chipsets made by Texas Instruments and NEC. Most third-party vendors
use one of these chipsets. It should work with any OHCI-1394
compliant card, however.
Say Y if you really want or need the debugging output, everyone
else says N.

NOTE:
comment "Texas Instruments PCILynx requires I2C"
You should only build either ohci1394 or the new firewire-ohci driver,
but not both. If you nevertheless want to install both, you should
configure them only as modules and blacklist the driver(s) which you
don't want to have auto-loaded. Add either
blacklist firewire-ohci
or
blacklist ohci1394
blacklist video1394
blacklist dv1394
to /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/* and update modprobe.conf
depending on your distribution. The latter two modules should be
blacklisted together with ohci1394 because they depend on ohci1394.
If you have an old modprobe which doesn't implement the blacklist
directive, use "install modulename /bin/true" for the modules to be
blacklisted.
