+ If this option is disabled, you allow userspace (root) access to all
+ of memory, including kernel and userspace memory. Accidental
+ access to this is obviously disastrous, but specific access can
+ be used by people debugging the kernel.

+ If this option is switched on, the /dev/mem file only allows
+ userspace access to memory mapped peripherals.
