H A Dprom.cdiff c1ce464d29e5bbf5819b2d7527b7d3030a6d65f1 Thu Oct 05 13:35:16 CDT 2006 Geoff Levand <geoffrey.levand@am.sony.com> [POWERPC] Minor fix for bootargs property

Avoid the use of an uninitialized stack variable when the powerpc device tree
bootargs property is either missing or incorrectly defined. This also makes
CONFIG_CMDLINE work properly under these conditions. This change adds a test
for the existence of the bootargs property.

early_init_dt_scan_chosen() tests for a zero length bootargs property in its
CONFIG_CMDLINE processing, but the current implementation of
of_get_flat_dt_prop() doesn't assign a value to the length when no property is
found. Since an automatic variable is used, a stale value from the stack will
be used in the test.
