The built-in kernel commandline (CONFIG_CMDLINE) can be configured in
three different ways:
1. CMDLINE_FORCE: Use CONFIG_CMDLINE instead of any bootloader args
2. CMDLINE_EXTEND: Append the bootloader args to CONFIG_CMDLINE
3. CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTLOADER: Only use CONFIG_CMDLINE if there aren't
any bootloader args.
The early cmdline parsing to detect idreg overrides gets (2) and (3)
slightly wrong: in the case of (2) the bootloader args are parsed first
and in the case of (3) the CMDLINE is always parsed.
Fix these issues by moving the bootargs parsing out into a helper
function and following the same logic as that used by the EFI stub.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
