Keith Mannthey said:

  The parameter hotadd_percent is setup right but there is a "Malformed
  early option 'numa'" message.

Rusty Russell said:

  This happens when the function registered with early_param() returns
  non-zero.  __setup() functions return 1 if OK, module_param() and
  early_param() return 0 or a -ve error code.
