switching to the matching ttyS device later. The
options are the same as for ttyS, above.
+ If the device connected to the port is not a TTY but a braille
+ device, prepend "brl," before the device type, for instance
+ console=brl,ttyS0
+ For now, only VisioBraille is supported.

earlycon= [KNL] Output early console device and options.

1 will print _a lot_ more information - normally
only useful to kernel developers.
+ debug_objects [KNL] Enable object debugging

lapic [X86-32,APIC] Enable the local APIC even if BIOS

noexec [IA-64]
noexec [X86-32,X86-64]
+ On X86-32 available only on PAE configured kernels.
noexec=on: enable non-executable mappings (default)

nofxsr [BUGS=X86-32] Disables x86 floating point extended
register save and restore. The kernel will only save
nr_uarts= [SERIAL] maximum number of UARTs to be registered.
+ olpc_ec_timeout= [OLPC] ms delay when issuing EC commands
+ Rather than timing out after 20 ms if an EC
+ command is not properly ACKed, override the length
+ of the timeout. We have interrupts disabled while
+ waiting for the ACK, so if this is set too high
+ interrupts *may* be lost!
