This patch increases the kernel command line size for x86_64 and i386
to 2048 characters. This is necessary because with kernel 2.6.20-rc6-mm
and newer, the kernel command line size has increased and kexec needs
lot of command line space, so this solves some "command line overflow"
problems.

To be able to warn users running older kernels that the command line
is too long (and don't wait that the kernel truncates it), the
patch tries to get the kernel command line length from the kernel
image that is loaded if possible by checking the length of the
static array that holds the kernel command line when booting.

If this is not possible or the command line is not in the range
[256; 2048], the default value is used (2048).
