This is done anyway, whatever is defined in CONFIG_BOOTARGS will be
stored in the U-Boot environment variable bootargs and passed as
bootargs to the kernel via the "chosen" node.

See fdt_chosen in common/fdt-support.c.

So if you want the change the bootargs passed to the kernel, just do

> set bootargs '<whatever you want in bootargs>'

at the u-boot prompt and the boot the kernel.
