Subject[PATCH 2/2] x86/earlyprintk: setup earlyprintk as possible
Date
As setup_early_printk passed to the early_param, it will be usable only after
'parse_early_param' function will be called from the 'setup_arch'. So we have
earlyprintk during early boot and decompression. Next point after decompression
of the kernel where we can use early_printk is after call of the
'parse_early_param'.

This patch removes 'earlyprintk' from the early_param and setup it right after
boot data copying. So 'early_printk' function will be usabable after
decompression of kernel and before parse_early_param will be called.

Kernel with this patch was tested with qemu-i386. early_printk function works
after early_printk initialization.
