drm/radeon/kms: change Kconfig text to reflect the new option. 

Ingo pointed out that we really don't give the user enough warning to make
a decision here. So revise the Kconfig text with a better warning.

Choose this option if you want kernel modesetting enabled by default,
and you have a new enough userspace to support this. Running old
userspaces with this enabled will cause pain.
Choose this option if you want kernel modesetting enabled by default.
This is a completely new driver. It's only part of the existing drm
for compatibility reasons. It requires an entirely different graphics
stack above it and works very differently from the old drm stack.
i.e. don't enable this unless you know what you are doing it may
cause issues or bugs compared to the previous userspace driver stack.
When kernel modesetting is enabled the IOCTL of radeon/drm
driver are considered as invalid and an error message is printed
