Subject: init/main.c: check if rdinit was explicitly set before printing warning
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a906f3ae4423d35c9804c8ec3a0db96ce9b54d44;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

init/main.c: check if rdinit was explicitly set before printing warning

The rdinit parameter is set by default, and attempted during boot even if
not specified in the command line.  Only print the warning about rdinit
being inaccessible if the rdinit value was found in command line; it's
just noise otherwise.
