efi/libstub: Make initrd file loader configurable
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Loading an initrd passed via the kernel command line is deprecated: it
is limited to files that reside in the same volume as the one the kernel
itself was loaded from, and we have more flexible ways to achieve the
same. So make it configurable so new architectures can decide not to
enable it.

Select this config option to add support for the initrd= command
line parameter, allowing an initrd that resides on the same volume
as the kernel image to be loaded into memory.

This method is deprecated.
