I disagree.  There are countless “dubug_level” kernel parameters or even
some “printk” related parameters.  Those are completely hardware-independent.
There are also parameters that are hardware dependent but most users won't
care to set them.  That's how the things are: there are some defaults but
you can override them by command line parameters.
