Add qualifying build option legend [CMA] to kernel boot options
that requirce CMA support to be enabled for them to be usable.
Also capitalize 'CMA' when it is used as an acronym.

When "comma separated" is used as a compound adjective, it should be
hyphenated.

early_param() is missing from the list of types of kernel command line
parameters that are listed in kernel-parameters.txt, so add it
(so that I can find parameters more easily).

This doesn't apply to docs-next; it seems you're fixing 5.10 stuff in
linux-next that went through Christoph's tree? So this patch will need to
go to him.
Thanks,
