OK, this looks cleaner!

s/modname/doing/ here, since it's a generic callback.

s/modname/doing/ (or /s/modname/unused/).

Same as above.

s/modname/doing/ here too, makes it clear.

... again....

OK, I don't get why you are doing your own parsing for builtins?

Can't you call something from init/main.c:unknown_bootoption()?

If that's too early, I have a patch we're working on which adds
parameter parsing to each initlevel.

Thanks,
Rusty.
