There is one patch per parameter, with a Fixes: tag where the removal is in git history. Each entry was checked with git grep for its __setup(), early_param() and module_param() handler and with git log -S for the removing commit, and the name is absent from the whole tree at that commit. Changes in v3: - patch 3: name the commit that turned edac_report= into a module parameter (fee27d7d9788) and the one that removed it (7fc0b9b995f2), Fixes: tag moved to the latter (Boris) - the pata_legacy patch is dropped, Ethan's patch from June covers all six parameters that commit 3c4d783f6922 removed: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260607064053.195166-1-enelsonmoore@gmail.com/ - collect Reviewed-by and Acked-by tags - the "Found by cross-checking ..." paragraph dropped from the messages The remaining eight patch diffs are unchanged since v2. Changes in v2: - patch 9: drop the Fixes: tag for 0dcd0a76370a, which removed the separate pata_qdi driver and not the pata_legacy parameter; both parameters went away in 3c4d783f6922 alone - collect the Reviewed-by and Acked-by tags from v1 v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260905094649.41996-1-kmehltretter@gmail.com/ v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260905070347.25902-1-kmehltretter@gmail.com/ Karl Mehltretter (8): docs: kernel-parameters: Drop the atarimouse= entry docs: kernel-parameters: Drop the bau= entry docs: kernel-parameters: Drop the edac_report= entry docs: kernel-parameters: Drop the enable_timer_pin_1 entry docs: kernel-parameters: Drop the mini2440= entry docs: kernel-parameters: Drop the nomfgpt entry docs: kernel-parameters: Drop the omap_mux= entry docs: kernel-parameters: Drop the pcmv= entry .../admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt | 54 ------------------- 1 file changed, 54 deletions(-) base-commit: 986c24e0fe44f844b44d365b71ce831947f50298 -- 2.53.0
