[PATCH 5.7 088/204] bootconfig: Fix to find the initargs correctly
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Aug 20 2020 - 09:06:36 EST
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.
