+ help
+ This option creates deprecated symlinks such as the
+ "device"-link, the <subsystem>:<name>-link, and the
+ "bus"-link. It may also add deprecated key in the
+ uevent environment.
+ None of these features or values should be used today, as
+ they export driver core implementation details to userspace
+ or export properties which can't be kept stable across kernel
+ releases.
+
+ If enabled, this option will also move any device structures
+ that belong to a class, back into the /sys/class heirachy, in
+ order to support older versions of udev.
+
+ If you are using a distro that was released in 2006 or later,
+ it should be safe to say N here.
