So we have earlyprintk during early boot and decompression. Next point after decompression of the kernel where we can use early_printk is after call of the 'parse_early_param'. This patch removes 'earlyprintk' from the early_param and setup it right after boot data copying. So 'early_printk' function will be usabable after decompression of kernel and before parse_early_param will be called. Kernel with this patch was tested with qemu-i386. early_printk function works after early_printk initialization.
