[3rdparty][PATCH] linux-boundary: change kernel command line defaults (console, initrd)

[Eric Nelson]

All boards from Boundary Devices default to using UART2 (ttymxc1)
as their console. Update the default kernel command line to match.

Also remove the 'noinitrd' flag which has little practical use.

Note that these changes only change the default kernel command line
and are normally overridden by U-Boot through ATAGS.

Hi Eric,

Actually that isn't true any more, our latest boards use UART1 (tymxc0):
https://github.com/Freescale/meta-freescale-3rdparty/blob/master/conf/machine/nitrogen7.conf#L39
https://github.com/Freescale/meta-freescale-3rdparty/blob/master/conf/machine/nitrogen6sx.conf#L39

But I'm not against this patch, I would just reword to "most Boundary
Devices platforms".

Regards,
Gary
