setenv("global.bootm.root_param", getenv("global.bootm.root_param"))
triggers a use-after-free, because the value is free'd before being
duplicated and allocated again.

Let's just early exit in this case as there's nothing further to do.

This was noticed by KASAN when bootm_data_restore_defaults restored
global.bootm.root_param.
