ARM: 6893/1: Allow for kernel command line concatenation 

This patch allows the provided CONFIG_CMDLINE to be concatenated
with the one provided by the boot loader. This is useful to
merge the static values defined in CONFIG_CMDLINE with the
boot loader's (possibly) more dynamic values, such as startup
reasons and more.

the boot loader doesn't provide any, the default kernel command

The command-line arguments provided by the boot loader will be

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.
If unsure, say N.
