Patch from Petr Baudis <pasky@ucw.cz> This patch (against 2.5.49) updates Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt to the current state of kernel. It was somehow abadonded lately, so I did my best, but it's possible that I still missed some of the options - thus, if you will notice your favourite boot option missing there, please speak up. Note also that I will probably send up another update after few further kernel releases.. Also, I attempted to introduce some uniform format to the entries, I added the format description where I was able to find it out and decypher it, and I also added gross amount of external links to the headers of the source files or to the README-like files, where the options are described into more degree. This way, hopefully this file has a chance to be actually usable for the users ;-). There are almost certainly some entries which I missed, it was really a huge number and the main reason is that some of the boot options don't use the __setup macro, which I grep'd for. I hope the patch is ok, there should be no problems with it. Please apply. Note that this is the fourth submission of the patch - I took the opportunity and updated the patch from 2.5.48 to 2.5.49. AFAIK mutt shouldn't mangle the patch in any way, so it should apply cleanly to your tree, Linus.
