Randy Dunlap ca1eda2d75 doc: small kernel-parameters updates
Change last "i386" to X86-32 as is used throughout the rest of the file.
Change combination of X86-32,X86-64 to just X86, as is done throughout the
rest of the file.

Add a note that hyphens and underscores are equivalent in parameter names,
with examples.

Ingo Molnar 62d1702909 Merge branch 'linus' into x86/urgent
Merge reason: We need the x86/uv updates from upstream, to queue up
              dependent fix.

Weidong Han 8b5b94e4e9 docs, x86: add nox2apic back to kernel-parameters.txt
"nox2apic" was removed from kernel-parameters.txt by mistake, when
entries were sorted in alpha order (commit 0cb55ad2). But this early
parameter is still there, add it back to kernel-parameters.txt.

[ Impact: add boot parameter description ]

Jaswinder Singh Rajput 6cececfcec x86, documentation: kernel-parameters replace X86-32,X86-64 with X86
X86 is same as X86-32+X86-64 so replace X86-32,X86-64 with X86.

Luca Tettamanti 7e90560c50 ACPI: acpi_enforce_resource=strict by default
Enforce strict resource checking - disallowing access by native
drivers to IO ports and memory regions claimed by ACPI firmware.

The patch is mainly aimed to block native hwmon drivers from touching
monitoring chips that ACPI thinks it own.

If this causes a regression, boot with "acpi_enforce_resources=lax"
which was the previous default.

Paul Mundt eeee7853c4 sh: Add a command line option for disabling I/O trapping.
This adds a 'noiotrap' kernel command line option to permit disabling of
I/O trapping. This is mostly useful for running on emulators where the
physical device limitations are not an issue.
