Oops, good catch!
Does this fixes the problem?

Subject: [PATCH] bootconfig: Fix to find the initargs correctly
Since the parse_args() stops parsing at '--', bootconfig_params()
will never get the '--' as param and initargs_found never be true.
In the result, if we pass some init arguments via the bootconfig,
those are always appended to the kernel command line with '--'
and user will see double '--'.
To fix this correctly, check the return value of parse_args()
and set initargs_found true if the return value is not an error
but a valid address.
Fixes: f61872bb58a1 ("bootconfig: Use parse_args() to find bootconfig and '--'")
