Subject[PATCH 5.8 83/99] lib/bootconfig: Fix to remove tailing spaces after value
Date
From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org>

commit c7af4ecdffe1537ba8aeed0ac12c3326f908df43 upstream.

Fix to remove tailing spaces after value. If there is a space
after value, the bootconfig failed to remove it because it
applies strim() before replacing the delimiter with null.

For example,

foo = var # comment

was parsed as below.

foo="var "

but user will expect

foo="var"

This fixes it by applying strim() after removing the delimiter.
