Changing to the generic options will break existing configs. At least
any defconfigs should be updated to maintain behavior. Or figure out
how to do it without changing config names.

Can't this just be removed?

Just do this here:

cmdline_add_builtin(boot_command_line, tag->u.cmdline.cmdline,
COMMAND_LINE_SIZE);

and remove everything from setup_machine_tags.

Also, I don't think there is any reason to have cmd_line and copy
boot_command_line to it in setup.c.
