+# CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK:
+#
+# Enabling this option forces a sysfs userspace fallback mechanism
+# to be used for all firmware requests which explicitly do not disable a
+# a fallback mechanism. Firmware calls which do prohibit a fallback
+# mechanism is request_firmware_direct(). This option is kept for
+# backward compatibility purposes given this precise mechanism can also
+# be enabled by setting the proc sysctl value to true:
+#
+# /proc/sys/kernel/firmware_config/force_sysfs_fallback
+#
+# If you are unsure about this, say N here.
+#
+# Symbol: FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK [=n]
+# Type : bool
+# Defined at drivers/base/firmware_loader/Kconfig:143
+# Prompt: Force the firmware sysfs fallback mechanism when possible
+# Depends on: FW_LOADER [=y] && FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER [=y]
