It is not about whether you're going to dynamically change it but more
about how often it is accessed. If it is accessed only a couple of times
tops during boot and then never again during the system lifetime - which
is generally the case for most boot params - then you certainly don't
want to pollute the read.mostly section with dead weight. You can just
as well use a stinking normal variable.
