It would be very helpful to mention which CPUs are affected.
Ok, we don't know exactly...

But Russell has stated that ARM610 and ARM710 benefit from enabling
the code, and that it specifically must not be enabled for StrongARM.

Here's an additional paragraph to add on the end:

	ARM610 and ARM710 are known to benefit from enabling this option.
	It should not be enabled for StrongARMs, because it is known
	to produce too short delays on those.

Maybe you can adjust the config selectors and default to match?
