ACPI, APEI, EINJ Param support is disabled by default

Browse Source 
EINJ parameter support is only usable for some specific BIOS.
Originally, it is expected to have no harm for BIOS does not support
it.  But now, we found it will cause issue (memory overwriting) for
some BIOS.  So param support is disabled by default and only enabled
when newly added module parameter named "param_extension" is
explicitly specified.

Injecting parameter support is a BIOS version specific extension, that
is, it only works on some BIOS version. If you want to use it, please
make sure your BIOS version has the proper support and specify
"param_extension=y" in module parameter.
For more information about EINJ, please refer to ACPI specification
version 4.0, section 17.5.
