Hi Jon, all, here are some quick'n'dirty patches to semi-automatically
generate module param documentation from the source, via module build
and modinfo(8). No polish or proper design, just a hacked up
proof-of-concept to think about.
Do we want nice documentation for module parameters, somewhere that
search engines can find them? And do we want to reuse the documentation
already in place for parameters?
BR,
Jani.

modinfo
Documentation: add drm and drm_kms_helper module param documentation
