[PATCH] docs: kernel-parameters: don't mix cmdline options & build options

[Randy Dunlap]

Some kernel command line descriptions mix, mingle, or conflate an
optional part of the command line with the build options that are
applicable to those command line options.

Specifically, a few command line options that use "KMG" to specify
a memory size mix that string with build options like "X86,EARLY".
These should be separate fields although they are both enclosed in
square brackets, so separate the conflated fields.
