+        help
+          This is a generic journaling layer for block devices that support
+          both 32-bit and 64-bit block numbers.  It is currently used by
+          the ext4 and OCFS2 filesystems, but it could also be used to add
+          journal support to other file systems or block devices such
+          as RAID or LVM.
+
+          If you are using ext4 or OCFS2, you need to say Y here.
+          If you are not using ext4 or OCFS2 then you will
+          probably want to say N.
+
+          To compile this device as a module, choose M here. The module will be
+          called jbd2.  If you are compiling ext4 or OCFS2 into the kernel,
+          you cannot compile this code as a module.
+

+        bool "JBD2 (ext4) debugging support"
+        depends on JBD2 && DEBUG_FS
+        help
+          If you are using the ext4 journaled file system (or
+          potentially any other filesystem/device using JBD2), this option
+          allows you to enable debugging output while the system is running,
+          in order to help track down any problems you are having.
+          By default, the debugging output will be turned off.
+
+          If you select Y here, then you will be able to turn on debugging
+          with "echo N > /sys/kernel/debug/jbd2/jbd2-debug", where N is a
+          number between 1 and 5. The higher the number, the more debugging
+          output is generated.  To turn debugging off again, do
+          "echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/jbd2/jbd2-debug".
