+ The kernel needs to change the hardware exception vectors.
+ In nommu mode, the hardware exception vectors are normally
+ placed at address 0x00000000. However, this region may be
+ occupied by read-only memory depending on H/W design.
+
+ If the region contains read-write memory, say 'n' here.
+
+ If your CPU provides a remap facility which allows the exception
+ vectors to be mapped to writable memory, say 'n' here.
+
+ Otherwise, say 'y' here. In this case, the kernel will require
+ external support to redirect the hardware exception vectors to
+ the writable versions located at DRAM_BASE.
