As setup_earlyprintk passed to the early_param, it will be usable only after 'parse_early_param' function will be called from the 'setup_arch'. So we have earlyprintk during early boot and decompression. Next point after decompression of the kernel where we can use early_printk is after call of the 'parse_early_param'.
This patch removes 'earlyprintk' from the early_param and setup it right after boot data copying. So 'early_printk' function will be usabable after decompression of kernel and before parse_early_param will be called.
