 	 Enable the raw_spinlock vs. spinlock nesting checks which ensure
 	 that the lock nesting rules for PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels are
 	 not violated.
 
+	 NOTE: There are known nesting problems. So if you enable this
+	 option expect lockdep splats until these problems have been fully
+	 addressed which is work in progress. This config switch allows to
+	 identify and analyze these problems. It will be removed and the
+	 check permanently enabled once the main issues have been fixed.
