A 5 second timeout during boot might be too long, so make it
configurable. Run the loop at least once to let the user stop the boot
by holding a key pressed.

The property is added to the chosen node, e.g.,

	chosen {
		bootargs = "console=ttyUL0 root=/dev/ram0";
		linux,stdout-path = "/plb@0/serial@46000000";
		linux,cmdline-timeout = <100>;
	} ;

ChangeLog:

v2:
- Rename the property linux,cmdline-timeout (Grant Likely)
- Run the loop at least once to allow (Grant Likely)
