-	help
-	   If kallsyms is not working correctly, the build will fail with
-	   inconsistent kallsyms data.  If that occurs, log a bug report and
-	   turn on KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS which should result in a stable build.

+	   Normally kallsyms only contains the symbols of functions for nicer
+	   OOPS messages and backtraces (i.e., symbols from the text and inittext
+	   sections). This is sufficient for most cases. And only in very rare
+	   cases (e.g., when a debugger is used) all symbols are required (e.g.,
+	   names of variables from the data sections, etc).
+
+	   This option makes sure that all symbols are loaded into the kernel
+	   image (i.e., symbols from all sections) in cost of increased kernel
+	   size (depending on the kernel configuration, it may be 300KiB or
+	   something like this).
+
+	   Say N unless you really need all symbols.
