First of all note that this function declared with the `__init` prefix. It means that this function will be used only during the initialization and used memory will be freed.
We can see declaration of two variables for the kernel command line and copying `real_mod_data` to the `boot_params` with the `memcpy` function. The next call of the `sanitize_boot_params` function which fills some fields of the `boot_params` structure like `ext_ramdisk_image` and etc... if bootloaders which fail to initialize unknown fields in `boot_params` to zero. After this we're getting address of the command line with the call of the `get_cmd_line_ptr` function:
