[U-Boot] LIBFDT - changing command line

Hi All,

I would like to use fdt for changing command line in DTB but
I found there is one problem if I have longer command line which contains
any spaces.
Below is my workflow.
If I understand correctly the problem is in cmd_fdt.c:fdt_parse_prop:593-603.
It will be worth to add case for supporting
fdt set /chosen bootargs "console=ttyUL root=/dev/mtdblock0"
copy from first " to next "

Or is it there any solution which I miss for this case?

Thanks,
Michal
