This looks generally OK to me, but could you have a go at writing a
description that's different to the synopsis?

Even just wording it slightly differently would be OK (e.g. "The
@code{kconfig-hardened-check} tool helps with checking the security
hardening options of the Linux kernel").

Thanks,

Chris
