<id>4e726924955825f44b6d2281ed6e1bc82a20360c</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 5f641174a12b8a876a4101201a21ef4675ecc014 upstream.

The `nocrt` module parameter has no code associated with it and does
nothing.  As `crt=-1` has same functionality as what nocrt should be
doing drop `nocrt` and associated documentation.

This should fix a quirk for Gigabyte GA-7ZX that used `nocrt` and
thus didn't function properly.
