Is anyone really going to use this? Seriously, honestly, for real? If "yes" then how did we determine that? Also, a bit of a nit: "init_on_alloc" and "init_on_free" aren't very well chosen names for the boot options - they could refer to any kernel object at all, really. init_pages_on_alloc would be better? I don't think this matters much - the boot options are already chaotic. But still...
