IO_DELAY documentation

["George Spelvin" <linux@horizon.com>]

"make oldconfig" doesn't know how to display the per-item help, so
something like this is needed.  It was a squeeze to make all the help
text, plus option prompt, fit into 24 lines.  If you think that's not
a concern, some of the wording could be improved.

+	  The original IBM PC required short pauses between consecutive
+	  accesses to its peripheral chips.  This can be provided four ways:
+
+	  * A dummy write to port 0x80 has been used for 15 years, but
+	    crashes the AMD64-based HP dv9000z laptop.  The safest option.
+	  * Port 0xED is also believed safe, and testing is requested.
+	  * Udelay is awkward to implement in the kernel due to processor
+	    speed variations, but should be extremely safe.
+	  * All but the very oldest PCs use emulations of the original
+	    peripheral chips built into a "Super I/O" chip, and usually
+	    do no need the delay at all.  The most efficient option.
+
+	  On the majority of machines, all four options should work.
+	  If you have a computer on which any of the four options
+	  (especially _0XED or _NONE) does not work, please report it,
+	  with a detailed description of the motherboard (and "lspci -nn"
+	  and "dmidecode" output), to linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org.
