This is not the args you are looking for. ;-)
There is a slight bug, but not as bad as you may think it is.
bootconfig (when added to the command line) will look for a json like
file appended to the initrd, and it will parse that. That's what all the
xbc_*() functions do (extended boot commandline). If one of the options
in that json like file is "init", then it will create the
extra_init_args, which will make ilen greater than zero.
The above if statement looks for that ' -- ', and if it doesn't find it
(strcmp() returns NULL when not found) it will than append " -- " to
the boot_command_line. If it is found, then the " -- " is not added. In
either case, the init args found in the json like file in the initrd is
appended to the saved_command_line.
I did say there's a slight bug here. If you have your condition, and
you add init arguments to that json file, it wont properly add the " --
", and the init arguments in that file will be ignored.
That should be fixed, and I think I was able to do that below. I also
noticed that we don't properly look for "bootconfig" either.
