help
Select this config option to add support for the dtb= command
line parameter, allowing a device tree blob to be loaded into
memory from the EFI System Partition by the stub.
- The device tree is typically provided by the platform or by
- the bootloader, so this option is mostly for development
- purposes only.
+ If the device tree is provided by the platform or by
+ the bootloader this option may not be needed.
+ But, for various development reasons and to maintain existing
+ functionality for bootloaders that do not have such support
+ this option is necessary.
