bootconfig: Fix to remove bootconfig data from initrd while boot
If there is a bootconfig data in the tail of initrd/initramfs, initrd image sanity check caused an error while decompression stage as follows. [ 0.883882] Unpacking initramfs... [ 2.696429] Initramfs unpacking failed: invalid magic at start of compressed archive This error will be ignored if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=n, but CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=y the kernel failed to mount rootfs and causes a panic. To fix this issue, shrink down the initrd_end for removing tailing bootconfig data while boot the kernel.
