Subject: Fix "Malformed early option 'loglevel'"
From: Alex Riesen <raa.lkml@xxxxxxxxx>
Keith Mannthey said:
The parameter hotadd_percent is setup right but there is a "Malformed
early option 'numa'" message.
Rusty Russell said:
This happens when the function registered with early_param() returns
non-zero. __setup() functions return 1 if OK, module_param() and
early_param() return 0 or a -ve error code.
