[PATCH] Allow early_param and identical __setup to exist

We currently assume that boot parameters which are handled by
early_param() will not overlap boot parameters handled by __setup: if
they do, behaviour is dependent on link order, usually meaning __setup
will not get called.

ACPI wants to use early_param("pci"), and pci uses __setup("pci="), so
we modify the core to let them coexist: "pci=noacpi" will now get
passed to both.
