Without this CONFIG_BOOTDELAY, autobooting does not work at all. As

CONFIG_BOOTDELAY, so that auto-booting works on x86.

I think the right direction (and I haven't had time myself) is to make
x86 use the generic distro framework.  Dennis Gilmore pointed out a
while ago Fedora at least can be easily made to generate the extlinux
file on x86 even so it'll just work there :)

Yes, this is definitely the "right direction". Unfortunately I'm a bit
limited with the time I could spend on this. And frankly, I have not
much experience with the generic distro framework. So I would like
to postpone this distro rework for a bit now. And since x86 does not
support auto-booting at all without CONFIG_BOOTDELAY, I think it
makes sense to apply this patch now. And add the distro stuff a
bit later.

Thanks,
Stefan
