[OE-core] [PATCH 1/1] init-live.sh: remove the '-c /dev/console' for switch_root

From: Chen Qi <Qi.Chen at windriver.com>

The '-c DEV' option is specific to the switch_root provided by busybox.
switch_root from util-linux doesn't recognize this option. As a result,
if we we this init-live.sh script together with util-linux, we would get
a kernel panic when executing switch_root.

Besides, this option doesn't seem to have any useful effect as far as I
can see. Removing it doesn't affect the behaviours of our live images.
