[Linux-ia64] PATCH: fix CONFIG_IA64_EARLY_PRINTK

[Luck, Tony]

This was broken in 2.4.10 when "early_printk()" was given
an extra argument to specify the length of the string to
print, but head.S wasn't updated to pass such an argument.
(Oddly enough the "alloc" call in head.S sets up two 'out'
registers already).

Here is the patch:
