Public bug reported:

[Impact]

 * During early development of uc20 core-initrd additional kernel
command-line arguments were required. These were dropped on 20th of
April 2020 in the pc gadget.

 * They made it into flash-kernel, and were not dropped at the same
time.

 * They are now redundant and mostly harmless during normal mode of
operation. However, they get in the way when trying to debug pi initrd.

[Test Plan]

 * Boot UC20 on pi-armhf or pi-arm64

 * Check that kernel command does not have "systemd.gpt_auto=0
rd.systemd.unit=basic.target"

[Where problems could occur]

 * snapd now has new functionality to append or replace kernel command
line. The remain argument that remains is "panic=-1". I am not too sure
if the flash-kernel uboot script actually is compatible with the snapd's
cmdline full / extra functionality.
