[RFC PATCH] powerpc/mm/radix: Parse disable_radix commandline correctly.

kernel parameter disable_radix takes different options
disable_radix=yes|no|1|0  or just disable_radix. When using the later format
we get below error.

 `Malformed early option 'disable_radix'`

We also update the command line parsing in prom_init to handle the new format.
