Yes, it will load the kernel successfully, but when you use kexec -e to run into
the loaded kernel, in the new kernel context, you will get garbage output when 
execute `cat /proc/cmdline`, and you also can see the garbage in "Kernel command
line" from dmesg. 

I am sure you will see this issue, because when user pass no cmdline, and cmdline_len
will because zero, so the line below in setup_linux_bootloader_parameters_high will
not work:
cmdline_ptr[cmdline_len - 1] = '\0';

Thanks
