Subject: [PATCH 4.19 regression fix 0/1] x86/setup: Deal with "quiet" commandline op

Hi All,

While booting 4.19-rc2 for the first time I noticed that it was printing
a bunch of BIOS-e820 mem init messages on the console even though I have
"quiet" on the commandline.

See the commit message of the patch for the cause of this. The patch is
not really pretty (nor really ugly), but it is the best solution I could
come up with.

Regards,

Hans
