From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 477d08478170469d10b533624342d13701e24b34 upstream. 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 '--' even if the kernel command line already has '--'. 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.
