[PATCH 2/7] Add a generic cmdline parse function parse_option_str

[Dave Young]

There should be a generic function to parse params like a=b,c
Adding parse_option_str in lib/cmdline.c which will return true
if there's specified option set in the params.

Also updated efi=old_map parsing code to use the new function
