[RFC v1 3/4] init.h: add early_param_on_off()

[Luis R. Rodriguez]

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxx>

At times all you need is a kconfig variable to enable a feature,
by default but you may want to also enable / disable it through
a kernel parameter. In such cases the parameter routines to turn
the thing on / off are really simple. Just use a wrapper for
this, it lets us generalize the code and makes it easier to
associate parameters with related kernel configuration options.
