All fine from ARM point of view.
Just to remember there is space for a standardization in the sources
being that other archs have ended up using different names for the
same things:

CONFIG_CMDLINE
CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL
CONFIG_CMDLINE_OVERRIDE
CONFIG_CMDLINE_OVERWRITE
CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND

During our kexecboot works we have battled with CMDLINE passed by
broken arm bootloaders and we are still fighting with mips kernels...


My 2 cents
