This isn't safe because it will destroy any argument with " -- " in
quotes and anything after it. For example, booting with:

thing=on acpi_osi="! -- " other=setting

will wreck acpi_osi's value and potentially overwrite "other=settings",
etc.

(Yes, this seems very unlikely, but you can't treat " -- " as special,
the command line string must be correct parsed for double quotes, as
parse_args() does.)

Here is where you can append the extra_init_args, since parse_args()
will have done the work to find after_dashes correctly.
