Better version with better range checking and _INIT() to reset the
string for re-use. It prints:
  [    0.000000] Kernel command line: root=/dev/sda2 ...
  [    0.000000] 1:-12 -34 -56 -78 -90
  [    0.000000] 2:-12 -34 -56 --90
  [    0.000000] 3:-12 -34 --90
  [    0.000000] 4:+12 +34 +-90
  [    0.000000] 5:~12 ~34 ~-90
  [    0.000000] PID hash table entries: 2048 (order: 2, 16384 bytes)

Thanks,
Kay
