kirkwood: find active Linksys root partition
This is imported verbatim from the mvebu WRT1900AC port. It picks up the current boot partition from the kernel command line, then renames that partition "ubi" so that it auto-mounts. Signed-off-by: Claudio Leite <leitec@staticky.com> SVN-Revision: 47431
