[PATCH 2/2 v4] Honor 'quiet' command line option in real mode boot decompressor.

[Kristian HÃgsberg]

This patch lets the early real mode code look for the 'quiet' option
on the kernel command line and pass a loadflag to the decompressor.
When this flag is set, we suppress the "Decompressing Linux... Parsing
ELF... done." messages.

Changed to use the bootflags approach suggested by hpa.  Less code and
yet it does a better job of parsing the command line (doesn't get
confused by eg fooquiet etc).
