- bool "Filter access to /dev/mem"
- ---help---
- If this option is disabled, you allow userspace (root) access to all
- of memory, including kernel and userspace memory. Accidental
- access to this is obviously disastrous, but specific access can
- be used by people debugging the kernel. Note that with PAT support
- enabled, even in this case there are restrictions on /dev/mem
- use due to the cache aliasing requirements.

- If this option is switched on, the /dev/mem file only allows
