debug_guardpage_minorder_setup and cmdline_parse_kernelcore do not check
input argument before using it. The argument would be a NULL pointer if
"debug_guardpage_minorder" or "kernelcore", without its value, is set in
command line and thus causes the following panic.

This patch adds a check to prevent the panic and adds KBUILD_MODNAME to
prints.
