+ help
+ For security reasons, bus mastering should be enabled as late as
+ possible. In coreboot, it's usually not necessary and payloads
+ should only enable it for devices they use. Since not all payloads
+ enable bus mastering properly yet, this option gives some sort of
+ "backwards compatibility" and is enabled by default to keep the
+ traditional behaviour for now. This is currently necessary, for
+ instance, for libpayload based payloads as the drivers don't enable
+ bus mastering for PCI bridges.
