Given these are both arch-agnostic parameters, wouldn't the correct change be to
remove all the arch-specific labels, i.e. [KNL,EARLY]? In fact, wasn't IA-64
removed from the kernel?
Indeed, the handling of these parameters completely resides in
generic mm; I'll send a separate patch and CC Andrew. And yes,
IA-64 was removed, but still has some mentions remaining
throughout the tree :)
