[PATCH bootconfig 2/3] fs/proc: Add boot loader arguments as comment to /proc/bootconfig

["Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@kernel.org>]

In kernels built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y, /proc/cmdline will
show all kernel boot parameters, both those supplied by the boot loader
and those embedded in the kernel image.  This works well for those who
just want to see all of the kernel boot parameters, but is not helpful to
those who need to see only those parameters supplied by the boot loader.
This is especially important when these parameters are presented to the
boot loader by automation that might gather them from diverse sources.
It is also useful when booting the next kernel via kexec(), in which
case it is necessary to supply only those kernel command-line arguments
from the boot loader, and most definitely not those that were embedded
into the current kernel.

Therefore, add comments to /proc/bootconfig of the form:

	# Parameters from bootloader:
	# root=UUID=ac0f0548-a69d-43ca-a06b-7db01bcbd5ad ro quiet ...

The second added line shows only those kernel boot parameters supplied
by the boot loader.
