+         Enable interface that calls into BIOS using a DSM (device
+         specific method) to convert system physical addresses
+         to DIMM (socket, channel, rank, dimm, etc.).
+         Only available on some servers.
+         Used by newer EDAC drivers.

Why is this user-selectable again?

It wasn't in the previous iteration. Any reason to restore this?

Apparently because I can't pick the largest number from a list. [I'm a git branch hoarder, so I have "adxl_v1", "adxl_v2", ...
somehow I didn't pick the newest when updating with the latest feedback from Boris]

I'll dig through all the posted versions and make sure I have all the feedback covered before posting a new version.

Sorry.
