params: make dashes and underscores in parameter names truly equal
The user may use "foo-bar" for a kernel parameter defined as "foo_bar". Make sure it works the other way around too. Apply the equality of dashes and underscores on early_params and __setup params as well. The example given in Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt indicates that this is the intended behaviour. With the patch the kernel accepts "log-buf-len=1M" as expected. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=744545 Signed-off-by: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> (neatened implementations)
