So the "config DTL" refers to the configuration entry.

The "nests properly" refers to the indent that 'make menuconfig' shows 
when a config-option that depends on the config-option proceeding it.

In this case, moving config DTL up so it is below config PPC_SPLPAR 
means that menuconfig will show config DTL nicely indented right below 
config PPC_SPLPAR when PPC_SPLPAR is enabled.

To contrast that, right now if I enable PPC_SPLPAR in menuconfig, all I 
can immediately tell is that "something showed up further down the list 
where I wasn't looking", and I end up having to toggle the option a few 
times to figure out what showed up, or look at the KConfig to find out 
that config DTL depends on config PPC_SPLPAR.

Essentially, this enables menuconfig to provide a visual hint about the 
dependencies between options.
