Subject: [PATCH] x86/setup: Parse the builtin command line before merging

Commit in Fixes was added as a catch-all for cases where the cmdline is
parsed before being merged with the builtin one.

And promptly one issue appeared, see Link below. And the microcode
loader really needs to parse it that early. And the merging happens
late. Reshuffling the early boot nightmare^W code to handle that
properly would be a painful exercise for another day so do the chicken
thing and parse the builtin cmdline too before it has been merged.

Fixes: 0c40b1c7a897 ("x86/setup: Warn when option parsing is done too early")
