+	  Framework for device drivers of compute acceleration devices, such
+	  as, but not limited to, Machine-Learning and Deep-Learning
+	  acceleration devices.
+	  If you say Y here, you need to select the module that's right for
+	  your acceleration device from the list below.
+	  This framework is integrated with the DRM subsystem as compute
+	  accelerators and GPUs share a lot in common and can use almost the
+	  same infrastructure code.
+	  Having said that, acceleration devices will have a different
+	  major number than GPUs, and will be exposed to user-space using
+	  different device files, called accel/accel* (in /dev, sysfs
+	  and debugfs)
