Basically that's more like "is there a pmon configuration, and if so, just forward parameters"? I personally don't see how we could correctly find out the different variants the linux kernel detects without using the information the kernel uses, i.e. the command line. And if we use the command line, we could as well just forward it. (The optimal case would be device trees everywhere, but well. We are today.)
