doc: kernel-parameters.txt: fix documentation of elevator parameter
Legacy IO schedulers (cfq, deadline and noop) were removed in f382fb0bcef4. The documentation for deadline was retained because it carries over to mq-deadline as well, but location of the doc file was changed over time. The old iosched algorithms were removed from elevator= kernel parameter and mq-deadline, kyber and bfq were added with a reference to their documentation. Fixes: f382fb0bcef4 ("block: remove legacy IO schedulers") Signed-off-by: Otto Sabart <ottosabart@seberm.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
