-	  Most USB controllers have the physical layer signalling part
-	  (commonly called a PHY) built in.  However, dual-role devices
-	  (a.k.a. USB on-the-go) which support being USB master or slave
-	  with the same connector often use an external PHY.
+menu "USB Physical Layer drivers"
 
-	  The drivers in this submenu add support for such PHY devices.
-	  They are not needed for standard master-only (or the vast
