[PATCH] init/main.c: Fix potential static_command_line memory overflow

From: Yuntao Wang
Date: Wed Apr 10 2024 - 23:25:38 EST


We allocate memory of size 'xlen + strlen(boot_command_line) + 1' for
static_command_line, but the strings copied into static_command_line are
extra_command_line and command_line, rather than extra_command_line and
boot_command_line.

When strlen(command_line) > strlen(boot_command_line), static_command_line
will overflow.

Fixes: f5c7310ac73e ("init/main: add checks for the return value of memblock_alloc*()")
