x86: Honor 'quiet' command line option in real mode boot decompressor.
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. Signed-off-by: Kristian Høgsberg <krh@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
