Documentation, mm/unaccepted: document accept_memory kernel parameter
The accept_memory kernel parameter was added in commit dcdfdd40fa82 ("mm: Add support for unaccepted memory") but not listed in the kernel-parameters doc. Add it there. Acked-by: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231214-accept_memory_param-v2-1-f38cd20a0247@suse.cz

+ accept_memory= [MM]
+ Format: { eager | lazy }
+ default: lazy
+ By default, unaccepted memory is accepted lazily to
+ avoid prolonged boot times. The lazy option will add
+ some runtime overhead until all memory is eventually
+ accepted. In most cases the overhead is negligible.
+ For some workloads or for debugging purposes
+ accept_memory=eager can be used to accept all memory
+ at once during boot.
