[PATCH] pass kernel command line as verbatim

[Michael Chang]

The command line has been processed by grub shell, then the result is expected
to be passed to kernel command line as verbatim according to the grub manual
[1][2].

This patch removes extra escape character added as it helps nothing but only
creates trouble as you want them to be literal. Besides the surrounding
double-quotes added is kept as it used to protect space.
