+ Driver to enable the bus infrastructure for the Freescale
+ QorIQ Management Complex.

Isn't this missing some scope limitations? Should we really have the
driver enabled on x86 for example?

I will add depends on OF && ARM64

I would also make this slightly more verbose. People don't necessarily
know what the QorIQ Management Complex is. Give people some idea what
they're dealing with and preferably tell them hints that guide them from
"SoC name" to "should I enable this option?".

Also, usually the help text gives some guidance on what to do with the
option if you're not sure. In this case, I would say advise the user to
say N.

Will do.
