Agreed - I also think there's nothing arch specific about handling 
bootargs, initrd, etc. But refactoring the code that handles the above 
would be a much bigger change.

Would it be fine if we do it in two or more steps (to minimize 
regression risks)?

  #1 - move minimal functions/code to add support for ima buffer on 
kexec for ARM64 (addressed in this patch series)

  #2+ - refactor further to move more arch independent code to common 
functions in the next set of patche series.
