           Add a simple leak tracer to the IOMMU code. This is useful when you
           are debugging a buggy device driver that leaks IOMMU mappings.

+          This is the traditional Linux IO delay used for in/out_p.
+          It is the most tested hence safest selection here.

+        bool "port 0xed based port-IO delay"
+        help
+          Use port 0xed as the IO delay. This frees up port 0x80 which is
+          often used as a hardware-debug port.

+          Use udelay(2) as the IO delay method. This provides the delay
+          while not having any side-effect on the IO port space.

         help
-          Make inb_p/outb_p use udelay() based delays by default. Please note
-          that udelay() does not have the same bus-level side-effects that
-          the normal outb based delay does meaning this could cause drivers
-          to change behaviour and/or bugs to surface.
+          No port-IO delay. Will break on old boxes that require port-IO
+          delay for certain operations. Should work on most new machines.
