Fallback to a boot_server kernel param if ip= not passed

Browse Source 
Depending on bootloader and configuration, ramdisks may receive
a ip= kernel parameter that is used for manual network bring up
in the ramdisk.  This parameter contains the address of the boot
server.  In the absence of ip=, we want the ramdisk to DHCP and
proceed as normal.  However, in this case need to know the address
of the boot server.  This falls back to a 'boot_server' parameter
for this address if it is not provided via kernel cmdline.
