Please avoid such redundancy when possible. Here perhaps easiest
by having the value come from Kconfig. By giving that separate
option a prompt, it would even become configurable at build time.

Why not integer_param() or, even better fitting the purpose,
size_param()? Also (I may have said so elsewhere already) please
prefer - over _ in new command line option names. And of course
the name needs to be unambiguous enough for it to be easy to
associate the purpose.
