-         If this option is selected the kernel will switch to a modified
-	 branch prediction mode if the firmware interface is available.
-	 The modified branch prediction mode improves the behaviour in
-	 regard to speculative execution.
-
-	 With the option enabled the kernel parameter "nobp=0" or "nospec"
-	 can be used to run the kernel in the normal branch prediction mode.
-
-	 With the option disabled the modified branch prediction mode is
-	 enabled with the "nobp=1" kernel parameter.
-
-	 If unsure, say N.
