From: Randy Dunlap Date: Sun, 3 Apr 2022 05:48:21 +0000 (-0700) Subject: Docs/admin: alphabetize some kernel-parameters (part 1) X-Git-Tag: v6.1-rc5~1172^2~38 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d2fc83c149a7a690ec2ef98e540950c5f18e983f;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-starfive.git Docs/admin: alphabetize some kernel-parameters (part 1) Move some out-of-place kernel parameters into their correct locations. Move one out-of-order keyword/legend in kernel-parameters.rst. Add some missing keyword legends in kernel-parameters.rst: HIBERNATION HYPER_V and drop some obsolete/removed keyword legends: EIDE IOSCHED OSS TS XT Correct the location of the setup.h file.
