The current code in a/m/k/setup.c assigns __rd_start & __rd_end to
initrd_start and initrd_end even when no ramdisk was added to the kernel
image. This gives an "Initial ramdisk at:...." message even though no
ramdisk is there. Attached patch fixes this. It furthermore prevents
initrd_{start,end} being overriden(in case it gets set somewhere in the
board specific code).
