Oops. Added in v5.

It seems rather complicated, in init/main.c you have heavy manipulations of command lines which 
seems to be done in setup_command_line() which seems to add stuff in front of command lines, at the 
end we end up with several command lines:

/* Untouched saved command line (eg. for /proc) */
char *saved_command_line;
/* Command line for parameter parsing */
static char *static_command_line;
/* Untouched extra command line */
static char *extra_command_line;

Some of them come from the cmdline_p which others are from boot_command_line.

I think a cleanup on all that stuff would be worth it as a further step.
