Hello,

https://01.org/linux-acpi/documentation/overriding-dsdt shows how to
override SSDT and it says that we need to set 'acpi_no_auto_ssdt' kernel
parameter. However, the kernel parameter name was changed by a94e88cdd805
("ACPICA: Tables: Avoid SSDT installation with acpi_gbl_disable_ssdt_table_load.")

Could you fix the description? Like as follows:

===
If you need to modify the code present in an SSDT, then combine all of the SSDTs into a DSDT override, modify it as necessary, and boot with a kernel parameter (*) to prevent Linux from automatically loading the SSDTs listed in the RSDT/XSDT.

(*) Linux-3.15 and before: acpi_no_auto_ssdt
    Linux-3.16 and after:  acpi_no_static_ssdt
===

Thanks,
Masa
