5 | Most x86 chips include a PCH which is responsible for handling | |
6 | parts of the system not handled by that CPU. It supersedes the | |
7 | northbridge / southbridge architecture that was previously used. The | |
8 | PCH allows for higher performance since the memory functions are | |
9 | handled in the CPU. | |

15 | Enable this if your SoC uses Platform Controller Hub 7 (PCH7). This | |
16 | dates from about 2011 and is used on baytrail, for example. The | |
17 | PCH provides access to the GPIO and SPI base addresses, among other | |
18 | functions. | |
