What were you trying to do that didn't work?

rpm-ostree based system with already set kargs (A=B C=D), applying a tuned profile with cmdline containing those kargs, tuned will call rpm-ostree kargs to delete and append the kargs, creating a new deployment with no functional changes.

Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

tuned-2.21.0-1.el9_3.noarch

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to reproduce

see description

Expected results

When delete kargs == append kargs (same content / same order) we can skip calling rpm-ostree

Actual results

tuned.plugins.plugin_bootloader: rpm-ostree kargs - appending: '['intel_iommu=on', 'iommu=pt']'; deleting: '['intel_iommu=on', 'iommu=pt']'
