Help text

Loongson SIMD Extension (LSX) introduces 128 bit wide vector registers and a set of SIMD instructions to operate on them. When this option is enabled the kernel will support allocating & switching LSX vector register contexts. If you know that your kernel will only be running on CPUs which do not support LSX or that your userland will not be making use of it then you may wish to say N here to reduce the size & complexity of your kernel.

If unsure, say Y.
