[PATCH v2 6/6] RISC-V: Implement keepinitrd kernel parameter

[Anup Patel <Anup.Patel@wdc.com>]

This patch implements keepinitrd kernel parameter. By default,
keepinitrd=1 but users can pass "keepinitrd=0" to free-up
initrd memory at boot-time in free_initrd_mem() function.

The keepinitrd kernel parameter is already implemented by
unicore32, arm, and arm64 architectures and it is documented
at: Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt
