Subject: powerpc/boot: Parse chosen/cmdline-timeout parameter
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4b4b13d5fec8a82ed2780c487e49cfc4321a8c14;p=linux-beck.git

powerpc/boot: Parse chosen/cmdline-timeout parameter

On some platforms a 5 second timeout during boot might be quite long, so
make it configurable. Run the loop at least once to let the user stop
the boot by holding a key pressed. If the timeout is set to 0, don't
wait for input, which can be used as a workaround if the boot hangs on
random data coming in on the serial port.
