Hi,

I recently noticed we haven't documented all of the various GEOM_* kernel
options in any manual pages. I don't know if this is intentional or not. A
quick grep reveals the following ("-" means not documented anywhere):

GEOM_AES                -
GEOM_BDE                Documented in gbde(4) manpage
GEOM_BSD                -
GEOM_CACHE              -
GEOM_CONCAT             -
GEOM_ELI                Documented in geli(8) manpage
GEOM_FOX                Documented in geom_fox(4) manpage
GEOM_GATE               Mentioned in hastd(8)
GEOM_JOURNAL            -
GEOM_LABEL              -
GEOM_LINUX_LVM          Documented in geom_linux_lvm(4) manpage
GEOM_MBR                -
GEOM_MIRROR             -
GEOM_MULTIPATH          -
GEOM_NOP                -
GEOM_PART_APM           Documented in gpart(8) manpage
GEOM_PART_BSD           Documented in gpart(8) manpage
GEOM_PART_EBR           Documented in gpart(8) manpage
GEOM_PART_EBR_COMPAT    Documented in gpart(8) manpage
GEOM_PART_GPT           Documented in gpart(8) manpage
GEOM_PART_LDM           Documented in gpart(8) manpage
GEOM_PART_MBR           Documented in gpart(8) manpage
GEOM_PART_PC98          Documented in gpart(8) manpage
GEOM_PART_VTOC8         Documented in gpart(8) manpage
GEOM_PC98               -
GEOM_RAID               -
GEOM_RAID3              -       
GEOM_SHSEC              -
GEOM_STRIPE             -
GEOM_SUNLABEL           -       
GEOM_UZIP               Documented in geom_uzip(4) manpage
GEOM_VIRSTOR            -
GEOM_VOL                -
GEOM_ZERO               -

Both the gpart(8) and geli(8) manpages have kernel options in the SYNOPSIS,
which probably isn't correct for section 8 manpages.

Some options are already documented in section 4 manpages (GEOM_BDE, GEOM_FOX,
GEOM_LINUX_LVM and GEOM_UZIP) but what do we do with the rest? What about
using the SYNOPSIS in the geom(4) manpage? Opinions?
