 			Format: <int>
-			Each bit of the <int> indicates an ACPI debug layer,
-			1: enable, 0: disable. It is useful for boot time
-			debugging. After system has booted up, it can be set
-			via /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_layer.
-			CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG must be enabled for this to produce any output.
-			Available bits (add the numbers together) to enable debug output
-			for specific parts of the ACPI subsystem:
-			0x01 utilities 0x02 hardware 0x04 events 0x08 tables
-			0x10 namespace 0x20 parser 0x40 dispatcher
-			0x80 executer 0x100 resources 0x200 acpica debugger
-			0x400 os services 0x800 acpica disassembler.
-			The number can be in decimal or prefixed with 0x in hex.
-			Warning: Many of these options can produce a lot of
-			output and make your system unusable. Be very careful.

-			Format: <int>
-			Each bit of the <int> indicates an ACPI debug level,

+			CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG must be enabled to produce any ACPI
+			debug output.  Bits in debug_layer correspond to a
+			_COMPONENT in an ACPI source file, e.g.,
+			    #define _COMPONENT ACPI_PCI_COMPONENT
+			Bits in debug_level correspond to a level in
+			ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT statements, e.g.,
+			    ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT((ACPI_DB_INFO, ...
+			See Documentation/acpi/debug.txt for more information
+			about debug layers and levels.
+
+			Enable AML "Debug" output, i.e., stores to the Debug
+			object while interpreting AML:
+			    acpi.debug_layer=0xffffffff acpi.debug_level=0x2
+			Enable PCI/PCI interrupt routing info messages:
+			    acpi.debug_layer=0x400000 acpi.debug_level=0x4
+			Enable all messages related to ACPI hardware:
+			    acpi.debug_layer=0x2 acpi.debug_level=0xffffffff
+
+			Some values produce so much output that the system is
+			unusable.  The "log_buf_len" parameter may be useful
