                        enables the feature at boot time. By default, it is
                        disabled and the system will work mostly the same as a
                        kernel built without CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.
+                       Note: to get most of debug_pagealloc error reports, it's
+                       useful to also enable the page_owner functionality.
                        on: enable the feature

+       lockdown=       [SECURITY]
+                       { integrity | confidentiality }
+                       Enable the kernel lockdown feature. If set to
+                       integrity, kernel features that allow userland to
+                       modify the running kernel are disabled. If set to
+                       confidentiality, kernel features that allow userland
+                       to extract confidential information from the kernel
+                       are also disabled.

                                reserved for hotplug bridge's IO window.
                                Default size is 256 bytes.
+               hpmmiosize=nn[KMG]      The fixed amount of bus space which is
+                               reserved for hotplug bridge's MMIO window.
+                               Default size is 2 megabytes.
+               hpmmioprefsize=nn[KMG]  The fixed amount of bus space which is

                                reserved for buses below a hotplug bridge.
                        even if the platform doesn't give the OS permission to
                        use them.  This may cause conflicts if the platform
                        also tries to use these services.
+               dpc-native      Use native PCIe service for DPC only.  May
+                               cause conflicts if firmware uses AER or DPC.
                compat  Disable native PCIe services (PME, AER, DPC, PCIe
                        hotplug).
