The i915.modeset parameter doesn't really provide any useful benefit over the nomodeset kernel parameter. Anything that i915.modeset does can be achieved via nomodeset or not probing i915 at all. Unfortunately, the i915.modeset parameter is widely referenced on various forums, and removing it is not that simple. Start off by deprecating it in the module parameter documentation, and logging a warning message on non-default values.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
