[ Upstream commit f2aad54703dbe630f9d8b235eb58e8c8cc78f37d ] When "driver_async_probe=nulltty" is used on the kernel boot command line, it causes an Unknown parameter message and the string is added to init's environment strings, polluting them. Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6 driver_async_probe=nulltty", will be passed to user space. Run /sbin/init as init process with arguments: /sbin/init with environment: HOME=/ TERM=linux BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6 driver_async_probe=nulltty Change the return value of the __setup function to 1 to indicate that the __setup option has been handled.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
