ipconfig: add carrier_timeout kernel parameter
commit
f6dcf7f77dde ("ipconfig wait for carrier") added a
"wait for carrier" policy, with a fixed worst case maximum wait
of two minutes.
Now make the wait for carrier timeout configurable on the kernel
commandline and use the 120s as the default.
The timeout messages introduced with
commit
d9bfb9887bb6 ("ipconfig: add informative timeout messages while
waiting for carrier") are done in a fixed interval of 20 seconds, just
like they were before (240/12).
