Openwrt/target/linux/generic/patches-3.1/333-mips-kexec-get-kernel-parameters-from-kexec-tools.patch
Gabor Juhos 6c74274c8d generic: improve MIPS kexec support
It is based on patches from the linux-longsoon-community git tree:
http://dev.lemote.com/cgit/linux-loongson-community.git/

Now the kernel can use the command line parameter from kexec-tools.

Runtime tested on ar71xx with 2.6.39.4 (the wathdog must be stopped
before executing the new kernel). Compile tested with lantiq (3.1.4)
and brcm47xx (3.0.12).

Subject: MIPS: Get kernel parameters from kexec-tools
Before, we simply use the command lines from the original bootloader,
but it is not convenient. Now, we accept the kernel parameters from the
--command-line or --append option of the kexec-tools. But If not
--command-line or --apend option indicated, will fall back to use the
ones from the original bootloader.
