params: don't ignore the rest of cmdline if parse_one() fails
parse_args() just aborts after it hits an error, so other args at the same initcall level are simply ignored. This can lead to other hard-to-understand problems, for example my testing machine panics during the boot if I pass "locktorture.verbose=true". Change parse_args() to save the err code for return and continue. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
