^Is this even valid for the kernel itself? Looking at [1], they clearly don't allow escaped \" in the arg/value.

I guess the word "escaped" in this test is a bit misleading; it's actually escaping the blank space, not the quote itself. This is valid for the kernel. In order to assure our parsing results would match those of the kernel I executed the code in cmdline.c in a standalone file to generate the reference values for the test.
I'll change "arg3\" escaped" to "arg3\" with spaces" to clearly state the intention here.
I forgot to mention that while double checking the reference values I had to add a missing trailing double quote to the expected result value in order to match what the kernel produces for this case. So this is actually "val2\"". -- Best regards, Paulo de Rezende Pinatti
