[ Upstream commit f2aad54703dbe630f9d8b235eb58e8c8cc78f37d ]
When "driver_async_probe=nulltty" is used on the kernel boot command line,
it causes an Unknown parameter message and the string is added to init's
environment strings, polluting them.
Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6
driver_async_probe=nulltty", will be passed to user space.
Run /sbin/init as init process
with arguments:
/sbin/init
with environment:
HOME=/
TERM=linux
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6
driver_async_probe=nulltty
Change the return value of the __setup function to 1 to indicate
that the __setup option has been handled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
