Why are these needed instead of using strlen and strlcat directly?

Because on powerpc (at least), it will be used in prom_init, it is very early in the boot and KASAN shadow memory is not set up yet so calling generic string functions would crash the board.

CONFIG_CMDLINE_FORCE implies CONFIG_CMDLINE, and even if it didn't,
CONFIG_CMDLINE is at worst an empty string. Can you drop the #ifdef?

Ah yes, since cbe46bd4f510 ("powerpc: remove CONFIG_CMDLINE #ifdef mess") it is feasible. I can change that now.

+		cmdline_strlcat(dest, " " CONFIG_CMDLINE, length);
+#endif

Likewise, but also I'm not sure why the sizeof() is required.

It is to avoid adding a white space at the end of the command line when CONFIG_CMDLINE is empty. But maybe it doesn't matter ?
