[PATCH] Make MAX_INIT_ARGS 32
We at Red Hat shipped a larger number of arguments for quite some time, it
was required for installations on IBM mainframe (s390), which doesn't have
a good way to pass arguments.
There are a number of reasonable situations that go past the current limits
of 8. One that comes to mind is when you want to perform a manual vnc
install on a headless machine using anaconda. This requires passing in a
number of parameters to get anaconda past the initial (no-gui) loader
screens.
