arm64 has no means to define behavior if CONFIG_CMDLINE is set as e.g.
arm32 has. Parts of the kernel will ignore CMDLINE if behavior on how
to treat is not specified, e.g.:
drivers/of/fdt.c:early_init_dt_scan_chosen:
#ifdef CONFIG_CMDLINE
#if defined(CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND)
strlcat(data, " ", COMMAND_LINE_SIZE);
strlcat(data, CONFIG_CMDLINE, COMMAND_LINE_SIZE);
#elif defined(CONFIG_CMDLINE_FORCE)
strlcpy(data, CONFIG_CMDLINE, COMMAND_LINE_SIZE);
#else
/* No arguments from boot loader, use kernel's cmdl*/
if (!((char *)data)[0])
strlcpy(data, CONFIG_CMDLINE, COMMAND_LINE_SIZE);
#endif
#endif /* CONFIG_CMDLINE */
Sync behavior of arm64 with arm32 (and other platforms).

help
Always use the default kernel command string, even if the boot
loader passes other arguments to the kernel.
This is useful if you cannot or don't want to change the
command-line options your boot loader passes to the kernel.
