Sure.

And when you do that, instead of deleting the help text, make it
generic. Otherwise, there's no explanation anymore, how that option is
supposed to be used through tlb_flushall_shift.

Not sure I am following you.
tlb_flushall_shift knob was removed by
commit e9f4e0a9fe27 ("x86/mm: Rip out complicated, out-of-date, buggy TLB flushing")
