Say Y here to have the kernel do limited verification on memory
allocation as well as poisoning memory on free to catch use of freed
memory. This can make kmalloc/kfree-intensive workloads much slower.

- help
- Enabling this option will cause the kernel to distinguish between
- ioremapped and physical addresses. It will print a backtrace (at
- most one every 10 seconds), hopefully allowing you to see which
- drivers need work. Fixing all these problems is a prerequisite
- for turning on USE_HPPA_IOREMAP. The warnings are harmless;
- the kernel has enough information to fix the broken drivers
- automatically, but we'd like to make it more efficient by not
- having to do that.
