ARM: 5939/1: ARM: Add option CMDLINE_FORCE to force usage of the in-kernel cmdline 

Add an option to force usage of the in-kernel cmdline even if the boot
loader passes another command string to the kernel.

Useful if someone cannot or don't want to change the
command-line options of the boot loader but is able to change
the kernel.

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.
