Add quiet_genkernel to make quieter boot.
The kernel boot option 'quiet' makes both the kernel & genkernel boot quietly. The new kernel boot option 'quiet_genkernel' just makes genkernel boot quietly, while not affecting the kernel verbosity. Fixes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=474472 Signed-off-by: Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org>
