4Subject: [PATCH] kern/parser: Fix resource leak if argc == 0
5
6After processing the command-line yet arriving at the point where we are
7setting argv, we are allocating memory, even if argc == 0, which makes
8no sense since we never put anything into the allocated argv.
9
10The solution is to simply return that we've successfully processed the
11arguments but that argc == 0, and also ensure that argv is NULL when
12we're not allocating anything in it.
13
14There are only 2 callers of this function, and both are handling a zero
15value in argc assuming nothing is allocated in argv.
