From 5b9a0e14eb4bf40a7cb780af4723560e06753f2d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cyrill Gorcunov Date: Sat, 1 Nov 2008 18:06:51 +0300 Subject: x86: nmi - nmi_watchdog boot param docs cleanup Impact: documentation update 1) nmi_watchdog boot parameter is common to 32/64 bit modes. So move it from Documentation/x86/x86_64/boot-options.txt to Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt and integrate with. 2) Also fix [panic] keyword placement -- it ought to be at first position otherwise it will not be recognized. 3) Document lapic and ioapic keywords.
