-	  support.
+	  Say M here to enable UTF-8 NFD normalization and NFD+CF casefolding
+	  support as a loadable module or say Y for building it into the kernel.
+
+	  utf8data.h_shipped has a large database table which is an
+	  auto-generated decodification trie for the unicode normalization
+	  functions and it is not necessary to carry this large table in the
+	  kernel. Hence, enabling UNICODE_UTF8 as M will allow you to avoid
+	  carrying this large table into the kernel and module will only be
+	  loaded whenever required by any filesystem.
+	  Please note, in this case utf8 module will only be available after
+	  booting into the compiled kernel. If your filesystem requires it to
+	  have utf8 during boot time then you should have it built into the
+	  kernel by saying Y here to avoid boot failure.
