Excuse me,, my English is not quite well, just as you said (I need improving)
after "*cp++ = ' ';" at line 42, also need "break checking" for "for (; ;)" outside of "while()"
the reply from sam not check it, (the patch what I sent check it).
this is the original source code of function prom_getbootargs in arch/sparc/prom/bootstr_32.c.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
27 case PROM_V0:
28 cp = barg_buf;
29 /* Start from 1 and go over fd(0,0,0)kernel */
30 for(iter = 1; iter < 8; iter++) {
31 arg = (*(romvec->pv_v0bootargs))->argv[iter];
32 if (arg == NULL)
33 break;
34 while(*arg != 0) {
35 /* Leave place for space and null. */
36 if(cp >= barg_buf + BARG_LEN-2){
37 /* We might issue a warning here. */
38 break;
39 }
40 *cp++ = *arg++;
41 }
42 *cp++ = ' ';
43 }
44 *cp = 0;
45 break;

I wonder how you found this bug?!?!
Anyway please consider this alternative fix:
diff --git a/arch/sparc/prom/bootstr_32.c b/arch/sparc/prom/bootstr_32.c

}
*cp = 0;
Adding the conditional inside the while loop makes
the logic simpler. And the patch actually deletes more lines than it adds.
And please take care to follow coding style too. In particular spaces around operators.
The old code does not follow coding style - but this is no excuse.
Note - the above is not even build tested!
If you use the above code-snippet you can add my:
