append can contain any arbitrary string, which will be parsed by the
kernel. I e.g. use:

append="root=/dev/sda2 snd_ac97_codec.power_save=1 usbcore.autosuspend=1 
hpet=force quiet drm_kms_helper.poll=0"

And grub also supports an append string with spaces, that is probably
used by every distribution.

The question is, what will the kernel parser do about that space?
