Just "freq" is sufficient as parameter name.

bool
But I would rather make this a private flag in cobalt/init.c, see below.

How is synchronization supposed to work here?
And when is clockfreq_arg supposed to be consumed after mach_setup? By
whom? /sys/module/xenomai/parameters/?
To make this function more useful, it could perform the "was passed"
check and also set clockfreq_arg and call xnclock_update_freq() if it
was not defined via the command line.

Why exporting this internal helper? Xenomai is always built into the kernel.

Global variables are already zero-initialized.

See my remark above: If you push xnclock_update_freq into
cobalt_update_clockfreq, you can simplify to logic here, just call
cobalt_update_clockfreq unconditionally.

And now I understand that none of this is needed for 3.2, only the
I-pipe patch to send the kevent.
