acpi_rsdp= [ACPI,EFI,KEXEC]
Pass the RSDP address to the kernel, mostly used
behaviour to be specified. Bit 0 enables warnings,
bit 1 enables fixups, and bit 2 sends a segfault.
+ align_va_addr= [X86-64]
+ Align virtual addresses by clearing slice [14:12] when
+ allocating a VMA at process creation time. This option
+ gives you up to 3% performance improvement on AMD F15h
+ machines (where it is enabled by default) for a
+ CPU-intensive style benchmark, and it can vary highly in
+ a microbenchmark depending on workload and compiler.
