From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 9feaf8b387ee0ece9c1d7add308776b502a35d0c ] When "dump_apple_properties" is used on the kernel boot command line, it causes an Unknown parameter message and the string is added to init's argument strings: Unknown kernel command line parameters "dump_apple_properties BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6 efivar_ssdt=newcpu_ssdt", will be passed to user space. Run /sbin/init as init process with arguments: /sbin/init dump_apple_properties with environment: HOME=/ TERM=linux BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6 efivar_ssdt=newcpu_ssdt Similarly when "efivar_ssdt=somestring" is used, it is added to the Unknown parameter message and to init's environment strings, polluting them (see examples above). Change the return value of the __setup functions to 1 to indicate that the __setup options have been handled.
