I do not read a strict requirement on /chosen node in either ePAPR or in Documentation/devicetree. Help text for CONFIG_CMDLINE and CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND doesn't make their behavior explicitly dependent on the presence of /chosen or the presense of /chosen/bootargs. However the early check for /chosen and bailing out in early_init_dt_scan_chosen() skips CONFIG_CMDLINE handling which is not really related to /chosen node or the particular method of passing cmdline from bootloader. This leads to counterintuitive combinations (assuming CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND=y): a) bootargs="foo", CONFIG_CMDLINE="bar" => cmdline=="foo bar" b) /chosen missing, CONFIG_CMDLINE="bar" => cmdline=="" c) bootargs="", CONFIG_CMDLINE="bar" => cmdline==" bar" Move CONFIG_CMDLINE handling outside of early_init_dt_scan_chosen() so that cases b and c above result in the same cmdline.
