    Fix docstring of eval-expression
    
    * lisp/simple.el (eval-expression): Fix the docstring to reflect the
    fact that the prefix argument does not affect formatting for
    integers (Bug #20691).

 When called interactively, read an Emacs Lisp expression and evaluate it.

 Normally, this function truncates long output according to the value
 of the variables `eval-expression-print-length' and
 `eval-expression-print-level'.  With a prefix argument of zero,
-however, there is no such truncation.  Such a prefix argument
-also causes integers to be printed in several additional formats

 Runs the hook `eval-expression-minibuffer-setup-hook' on entering the
 minibuffer.
