x86/boot: Pull up cmdline preparation and early param parsing
commit
8d48bf8206f77aa8687f0e241e901e5197e52423 upstream.
Dan reports that Anjaneya Chagam can no longer use the efi=nosoftreserve
kernel command line parameter to suppress "soft reservation" behavior.
This is due to the fact that the following call-chain happens at boot:
early_reserve_memory
|-> efi_memblock_x86_reserve_range
|-> efi_fake_memmap_early
which does
if (!efi_soft_reserve_enabled())
return;
and that would have set EFI_MEM_NO_SOFT_RESERVE after having parsed
"nosoftreserve".
However, parse_early_param() gets called *after* it, leading to the boot
cmdline not being taken into account.
Therefore, carve out the command line preparation into a separate
function which does the early param parsing too. So that it all goes
together.
And then call that function before early_reserve_memory() so that the
params would have been parsed by then.
