    [PATCH 34/34] does (this should have included [PATCH 34/34], I guess).

    I have one related question, we should document all the kernel boot
    parameters in Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt?

    Some of x86_64 boot parameters are in
    Documentations/x86/x86_64/boot-options.txt. The parameters of IOMMUs
    are scattered. It's confusing.
