[POWERPC] Fix builtin command line interaction with firmware
It seems that prom_init's early_cmdline_parse is broken on at least Apple 970 xserves and IBM JS20 blades with SLOF. The firmware of these machines returns -1 and 1 respectively when getprop is called for the bootargs property of /chosen, causing Linux to ignore its builtin command line in favor of a null string. This patch makes Linux use its builtin command line if getprop returns an error or a null string.
