help
This enables extended support for Intel processors
This enables detection, tunings and quirks for Intel processors
You need this enabled if you want your kernel to run on an
Intel CPU. Disabling this option on other types of CPUs
makes the kernel a tiny bit smaller. Disabling it on an Intel
CPU might render the kernel unbootable.
If unsure, say N.
