this makes no sense to me. We have tons of kernel parameters that are for developers only. We don't want to maintain or advertise them as a supported configuration interface.

from Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst

"
This document may not be entirely up to date and comprehensive. The command
"modinfo -p ${modulename}" shows a current list of all parameters of a loadable
module. Loadable modules, after being loaded into the running kernel, also
reveal their parameters in /sys/module/${modulename}/parameters/. Some of these
parameters may be changed at runtime by the command
echo -n ${value} > /sys/module/${modulename}/parameters/${parm}.
"

I think modinfo is more than enough here.
