POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and
groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme.
POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support additional access rights
for users and groups beyond the standard owner/group/world scheme,
and this option selects support for ACLs specifically for tmpfs
filesystems.

If you've selected TMPFS, it's possible that you'll also need
this option as there are a number of Linux distros that require
POSIX ACL support under /dev for certain features to work properly.
For example, some distros need this feature for ALSA-related /dev
files for sound to work properly. In short, if you're not sure,
say Y.

To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the POSIX ACLs for
Linux website <http://acl.bestbits.at/>.

If you don't know what Access Control Lists are, say N.
