Recently I sent some patches to reword other extensions' help text,
because the "add support to dynamically detect" had confused people a
bit. Dynamic detection is done regardless of config options for Zba.
The wording I went with in my patch for Zbb was:
	   Add support for enabling optimisations in the kernel when the
	   Zbb extension is detected at boot.
Could you use something similar here in the opening sentence please?

Thanks,
Conor.
