The logic hurts, but I think I grok it now. The last term is actually
a reduction of

	(IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTLOADER) && !prop)

and we know for sure that if none of the other two terms are true,
then CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTLOADER *must* be enabled.

I don't think we need to backport anything to stable for the nokaslr
handling, do we?
