handle kernelcore=: generic

Browse Source 
This patch adds the kernelcore= parameter for x86.

Once all patches are applied, a new command-line parameter exist and a new
sysctl.  This patch adds the necessary documentation.

From: Yasunori Goto <y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com>

  When "kernelcore" boot option is specified, kernel can't boot up on ia64
  because of an infinite loop.  In addition, the parsing code can be handled
  in an architecture-independent manner.

  This patch uses common code to handle the kernelcore= parameter.  It is
  only available to architectures that support arch-independent zone-sizing
  (i.e.  define CONFIG_ARCH_POPULATES_NODE_MAP).  Other architectures will
  ignore the boot parameter.
