logo.nologo [FB] Disables display of the built-in Linux logo.
This may be used to provide more screen space for
and restore using xsave. The kernel will fallback to
enabling legacy floating-point and sse state.
+ noxsaveopt [X86] Disables xsaveopt used in saving x86 extended
+ register states. The kernel will fall back to use
+ xsave to save the states. By using this parameter,
+ performance of saving the states is degraded because
+ xsave doesn't support modified optimization while
+ xsaveopt supports it on xsaveopt enabled systems.
+
+ noxsaves [X86] Disables xsaves and xrstors used in saving and
+ restoring x86 extended register state in compacted
+ form of xsave area. The kernel will fall back to use
+ xsaveopt and xrstor to save and restore the states
+ in standard form of xsave area. By using this
+ parameter, xsave area per process might occupy more
+ memory on xsaves enabled systems.

+ s390_iommu= [HW,S390]
