Krister Johansen 2b1ee516b1 proc: sysctl: prevent aliased sysctls from getting passed to init 
commit 8001f49394 upstream.

The code that checks for unknown boot options is unaware of the sysctl
alias facility, which maps bootparams to sysctl values.  If a user sets
an old value that has a valid alias, a message about an invalid
parameter will be printed during boot, and the parameter will get passed
to init.  Fix by checking for the existence of aliased parameters in the
unknown boot parameter code.  If an alias exists, don't return an error
or pass the value to init.
