Big thanks for making the website. I stumbled upon it a few days ago and I'm pretty happy that somebody pointed my attention towards this.

The parameter list could be even reduced to fewer elements as mitigations=off covers nopti, nospectre_v1, nospectre_v2, l1tf=off, nospec_store_bypass_disable and mds=off.[1]
