+A toggle indicating if the syscalls ``kexec_load`` and
+``kexec_file_load`` have been disabled.
+This value defaults to 0 (false: ``kexec_*load`` enabled), but can be
+set to 1 (true: ``kexec_*load`` disabled).
 Once true, kexec can no longer be used, and the toggle cannot be set
 back to false.
 This allows a kexec image to be loaded before disabling the syscall,
