The bootargs property might be overridden by bootloaders on kernel load, in such scenario, bootargs-override might be used instead. With bootargs-override set, any value set in bootargs will be ignored. The bootargs-append can be used to append additional kernel arguments to the bootargs property. This can be useful in the context of a bootargs overridden by the bootloader that contains correct that but the kernel require additional one to be correctly setup.
