I experienced doubling on arm64 when this was used (i.e. the append and prepend was added twice). I don't think there are any other users which can't be moved outside the device tree code, but powerpc uses this function three times during boot up plus the prom_init user. It's possible to use the generic command line in all four places, but it become space inefficient. So the plan would be make the other architectures call the generic cmdline directly without this code, then powerpc would need to be reworked to call the generic commandline in it's own code hopefully just once. The end results would be this section would reduce down to one string copy and no command line stuff. Maybe you would rather I just use the generic command line in those three place and reduce this at the space code of powerpc ? Daniel
