Thanks a lot!
I tested this on an Android virtual device(Cuttlefish) with a variety of
parameters that included array values. I checked the output in /proc/bootconfig
before and after the changes.
I added a new parameter that failed before these changes and it worked great!
Added 'androidboot.hardware=cutf_cvm ' which worked with
'androidboot.hardware.gralloc = "minigbm"' that was already present.
So,
