[PATCH 2/7] Add a generic cmdline parse function parse_option_str

From: Dave Young
Date: Thu Aug 14 2014 - 05:18:10 EST


There should be a generic function to parse params like a=b,c
Adding parse_option_str in lib/cmdline.c which will return true
if there's specified option set in the params.

Also updated efi=old_map parsing code to use the new function
