- hpet= [X86-32,HPET] option to disable HPET and use PIT.
- Format: disable
+ hpet= [X86-32,HPET] option to control HPET usage
+ Format: { enable (default) | disable | force }

com20020= [HW,NET] ARCnet - COM20020 chipset
Format:
UART at the specified I/O port or MMIO address.
The options are the same as for ttyS, above.
+ no_console_suspend
+ [HW] Never suspend the console
+ Disable suspending of consoles during suspend and

+ messages can reach various consoles while the rest
+ of the system is being put to sleep (ie, while

+ not work reliably with all consoles, but is known
+ to work with serial and VGA consoles.

[KNL] Reserve a chunk of physical memory to
hold a kernel to switch to with kexec on panic.
+ crashkernel=range1:size1[,range2:size2,...][@offset]
+ [KNL] Same as above, but depends on the memory
+ in the running system. The syntax of range is
+ start-[end] where start and end are both
+ a memory unit (amount[KMG]). See also
+ Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for a example.
