of: fdt: Honor CONFIG_CMDLINE* even without /chosen node, take 2
[ Upstream commit
064e32dc5b03114d0767893fecdaf7b5dfd8c286 ]
I do not read a strict requirement on /chosen node in either ePAPR or in
Documentation/devicetree. Help text for CONFIG_CMDLINE and
CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND doesn't make their behavior explicitly dependent on
the presence of /chosen or the presense of /chosen/bootargs.
However the early check for /chosen and bailing out in
early_init_dt_scan_chosen() skips CONFIG_CMDLINE handling which is not
really related to /chosen node or the particular method of passing cmdline
from bootloader.
This leads to counterintuitive combinations (assuming
CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND=y):
a) bootargs="foo", CONFIG_CMDLINE="bar" => cmdline=="foo bar"
b) /chosen missing, CONFIG_CMDLINE="bar" => cmdline==""
c) bootargs="", CONFIG_CMDLINE="bar" => cmdline==" bar"
Rework early_init_dt_scan_chosen() so that the cmdline config options are
always handled.
