I have automated kernel boots that have both "kmemcheck=0" and
"kmemcheck=1" as the last parameter in the kernel command line every
night and I've never seen it fail on tip or linux-next before.
So I'm sure I won't be able to reproduce your issue, but it may have
something to do with your bootloader that isn't described above. The
sscanf() really wants to be replaced with kstrtoint().
Could you try this out?
