We will use this in a few patches to implement tests for early parsing.

__cmdline_find_option_bool() tries to account for both NULL-terminated
and non-NULL-terminated strings. It keeps 'pos' to look for the end of
the buffer and also looks for '!c' in a bunch of places to look for NULL
termination.
But, it also calls strlen(). You can't call strlen on a
non-NULL-terminated string.
If !strlen(cmdline), then cmdline[0]=='\0'. In that case, we will go in
to the while() loop, set c='\0', hit st_wordstart, notice !c, and will
immediately return 0.
So, remove the strlen(). It is unnecessary and unsafe.

cmdline_find_option_bool() keeps track of position in two strings:
1. the command-line
2. the option we are searchign for in the command-line
We plow through each character in the command-line one at a time, always
moving forward. We move forward in the option ('opptr') when we match
characters in 'cmdline'. We reset the 'opptr' only when we go in to the
'st_wordstart' state.
But, if we fail to match an option because we see a space
(state=st_wordcmp, *opptr='\0',c=' '), we set state='st_wordskip' and
'break', moving to the next character. But, that move to the next
character is the one *after* the ' '. This means that we will miss a
'st_wordstart' state.
For instance, if we have
cmdline = "foo fool";
and are searching for "fool", we have:
"fool"
opptr = ----^
"foo fool"
c = --------^
We see that 'l' != ' ', set state=st_wordskip, break, and then move 'c', so:
"foo fool"
c = ---------^
and are still in state=st_wordskip. We will stay in wordskip until we
have skipped "fool", thus missing the option we were looking for. This
*only* happens when you have a partially- matching word followed by a
matching one.
To fix this, we always fall *into* the 'st_wordskip' state when we set
it.

The x86 early command line parsing in cmdline_find_option_bool() is
buggy. If it matches a specified 'option' all the way to the end of the
command-line, it will consider it a match.
For instance,
cmdline = "foo";
cmdline_find_option_bool(cmdline, "fool");
will return 1. This is particularly annoying since we have actual FPU
options like "noxsave" and "noxsaves" So, command-line "foo bar noxsave"
will match *BOTH* a "noxsave" and "noxsaves". (This turns out not to be
an actual problem because "noxsave" implies "noxsaves", but it's still
confusing.)
To fix this, we simplify the code and stop tracking 'len'. 'len'
was trying to indicate either the NULL terminator *OR* the end of a
non-NULL-terminated command line at 'COMMAND_LINE_SIZE'. But, each of the
three states is *already* checking 'cmdline' for a NULL terminator.
We _only_ need to check if we have overrun 'COMMAND_LINE_SIZE', and that
we can do without keeping 'len' around.
Also add some commends to clarify what is going on.

Carve out early cmdline parsing function into .../lib/cmdline.c so it
can be used by early code in the kernel proper as well.
