This adds code to handle the generic command line changes.
The efi code appears that it doesn't benefit as much from this design
as it could.

For example, if you had a prepend command line with "nokaslr" then
you might be helpful to re-enable it in the boot loader or dts,
but there appears to be no way to re-enable kaslr or some of the
other options.

Even though I am not a fan of the 'success handling' pattern,
duplicating the exact same error handling three times is not great
either. Could we reuse more of the code here?

What is the point of calling efi_parse_options() with an empty string?

Does this mean CONFIG_GENERIC_CMDLINE does not replace CMDLINE_EXTEND
/ CMDLINE_FORCE etc, but introduces yet another variant on top of
those?

That does not seem like an improvement to me. I think it is great that
you are cleaning this up, but only if it means we can get rid of the
old implementation.

How about

efi_status_t status = 0;

status |= efi_parse_options(CMDLINE_PREPEND);

then error checking once ?

I could change it to if ((IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CMDLINE_OVERRIDE)) ?

It does replace extend and force. I was under the impression this code was
shared between arm64 and arm32. If that's not the case I can delete the extend
and force section. I haven't submitted a conversion for arm32 yet.

I think we can refactor to first build the final command line, then call efi_parse_options() only 
once after that.

The big advantage of GENERIC_CMDLINE should be to not address anymore CONFIG_CMDLINE_XXX options at 
all outside of linux/cmdline.h

I tried this, like what you did in your v4 .. The issues are similar to the
prom_init.c problems. The environment is delicate and requires careful
programming to get it done correctly.
