+	  Select this option to have mac80211 register the
+	  mac80211_msg trace subsystem with tracepoints to
+	  collect all debugging messages, independent of
+	  printing them into the kernel log.
+
+	  The overhead in this option is that all the messages
+	  need to be present in the binary and formatted at
+	  runtime for tracing.
