+       tristate "Host kernel accelerator for virtio net (EXPERIMENTAL)"
+       depends on NET && EVENTFD && EXPERIMENTAL
+       ---help---
+         This kernel module can be loaded in host kernel to accelerate
+         guest networking with virtio_net. Not to be confused with virtio_net
+         module itself which needs to be loaded in guest kernel.
+
+         To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
+         be called vhost_net.
