It says: # What follows is a list of drivers that are normally in GENERIC, but either # don't work or are untested with PAE. Be very careful before enabling any # of these drivers. Drivers which use DMA and don't handle 64 bit physical # address properly may cause data corruption when used in a machine with more # than 4 gigabytes of memory. and under this comment it lists the sym and usb drivers.
