Thanks Daniel.

Please have this config support for arm64 as well. Previously arm64 used 
to support CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND
which was useful for our usecase. However it was dropped from commit 
cae118b6acc309539b33339e846cbb19187c164c
referring to your patch series as an alternative. Hence the need.
