Driver Core: Early platform driver buffer
Add early_platform_init_buffer() support and update the early platform driver code to allow passing parameters to the driver on the kernel command line. early_platform_init_buffer() simply allows early platform drivers to provide a pointer and length to a memory area where the remaining part of the kernel command line option will be stored. Needed to pass baud rate and other serial port options to the reworked early serial console code on SuperH.
