+         This option enables support for running as a QEMU guest using
+         QEMU's generic e500 machine.  This is not required if you're
+         using a QEMU machine that targets a specific board, such as
+         mpc8544ds.
+
+         Unlike most e500 boards that target a specific CPU, this
+         platform works with any e500-family CPU that QEMU supports.
+         Thus, you'll need to make sure CONFIG_PPC_E500MC is set or
+         unset based on the emulated CPU (or actual host CPU in the case
+         of KVM).
