Subject: [PATCH] blscfg: Don't hardcode an env var as fallback for the BLS
da16a7
 options field
da16a7
da16a7
If the BLS fragments don't have an options field or if this was set to an
da16a7
environment variable that was not defined in the grubenv file, the blscfg
da16a7
module searches for a default_kernelopts variable that is defined in the
da16a7
grub.cfg file.
da16a7
da16a7
But the blscfg module shouldn't hardcode fallbacks variables and instead
da16a7
this logic should be handled in the GRUB config file itself.
da16a7
da16a7
Also, add a comment explaining where the kernelopts variable is supposed
da16a7
to be defined and what is the process for the user to change its value.
