+ This option is selected by any driver which registers a
+ device or driver on the MIC Bus, such as CONFIG_INTEL_MIC_HOST,
+ CONFIG_INTEL_MIC_CARD, CONFIG_INTEL_MIC_X100_DMA etc.
+
+ If you are building a host/card kernel with an Intel MIC device
+ then say M (recommended) or Y, else say N. If unsure say N.
+
+ More information about the Intel MIC family as well as the Linux
+ OS and tools for MIC to use with this driver are available from
