// Read a Linux kernel options file for a Linux boot loader into memory. The LoaderPath
// and Volume variables identify the location of the options file, but not its name --
// you pass this function the filename of the Linux kernel, initial RAM disk, or other
// kernel developers decided to use that name for a similar purpose, but with a
// different file format. Thus, I'm migrating rEFInd to use the name refind_linux.conf,
// but I want a migration period in which both names are used.
+// If a rEFInd options file can't be found, try to generate minimal options from
+// /etc/fstab on the same volume as the kernel. This typically works only if the
+// kernel is being read from the Linux root filesystem.
//
// The return value is a pointer to the REFIT_FILE handle for the file, or NULL if
// it wasn't found.
