Help text

Enable the creation of VCHIQ character driver. The cdev exposes ioctls used by userspace libraries and testing tools to interact with VideoCore, via the VCHIQ core driver (Check BCM2835_VCHIQ for more info). This can be set to 'N' if the VideoCore communication is not needed by userspace but only by other kernel modules (like bcm2835-audio). If not sure, set this to 'Y'.
