Message-ID: <20240627162458.387700-1-thuth@redhat.com>
Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2024 18:24:58 +0200
From: Thomas Huth <thuth@...hat.com>
To: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@....net>,
	linux-doc@...r.kernel.org
Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org
Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: Remove IA-64 from kernel-parameters

IA-64 has been removed from the tree, so we should also remove
the corresponding kernel-parameters documentation now.

Signed-off-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@...hat.com>

 Note: Patch is based on linux-next branch (which already contains
       some other patches to kernel-parameters.txt)
