+	help
+	 Periodically check for memory corruption in low memory, which
+	 is suspected to be caused by BIOS.  Even when enabled in the
+	 configuration, it is disabled at runtime.  Enable it by
+	 setting "memory_corruption_check=1" on the kernel command
+	 line.  By default it scans the low 64k of memory every 60
+	 seconds; see the memory_corruption_check_size and
+	 memory_corruption_check_period parameters in
+	 Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt to adjust this.
+
+	 When enabled with the default parameters, this option has
+	 almost no overhead, as it reserves a relatively small amount
+	 of memory and scans it infrequently.  It both detects corruption
+	 and prevents it from affecting the running system.
+
+	 It is, however, intended as a diagnostic tool; if repeatable
