Subject: [PATCH 5/6] commands: nv: adjust command help
Date: Wed,  1 Nov 2017 08:27:09 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171101072710.31518-6-ejo@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171101072710.31518-1-ejo@pengutronix.de>

Help did not point out that -r option requires n arguments and did not
mention support for removing variables in help text.

Also introduce and consistently reuse 'NV' as abbreviation for 'non volatile'.
