Nit: There should be a blank line between the description and the
"Signed-off-by" line.
And another nit: Since some people are still using 80-columns terminal
windows, it's also nicer to wrap the description at the 80 columns
barrier (or even 76 columns already) instead.

It's maybe better to give clear instructions to the user, like:
"Need a kernel, please provide one with the '-kernel' option"
