+          Normally ASoC codec drivers are only built if a machine driver which
+          uses them is also built since they are only usable with a machine
+          driver.  Selecting this option will allow these drivers to be built
+          without an explicit machine driver for test and development purposes.
+
+          If unsure select "N".
