MIPS: Fix and enhance built-in kernel command line

MIPS: Fix and enhance built-in kernel command line

Currently, MIPS kernels silently overwrite kernel command-line parameters
hardcoded in CONFIG_CMDLINE by the ones received from firmware. Therefore,
using firmware remains the only reliable method to transfer the
command-line parameters, which is not always desirable or convenient, and
the CONFIG_CMDLINE option is thereby effectively rendered useless.

This patch fixes the problem described above and introduces a more flexible
scheme of handling the kernel command line, in a manner identical to what is
currently used for x86. The default behavior, i.e. when CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL
is not defined, retains the existing semantics, and firmware command-line
arguments override the hardcoded ones.

[Ralf: I fixed up all the defconfig files so the stay unaffected by this
change.]

Merge-reason: The tree was based 2.6.31. It's better to be up to date
with 2.6.32. Although no conflicting changes were made in between,
it gives benchmarking results closer to the lastest kernel behaviour.
