Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: treat NULL character in NVRAM as separator
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Platform NVRAM (stored on a flash partition) has entries separated by a
NULL (\0) char. Our parsing code switches from VALUE state to IDLE
whenever it meets a NULL (\0). When that happens our IDLE handler should
simply consume it and analyze whatever is placed ahead.
This fixes harmless warnings spamming debugging output:
[ 155.165624] brcmfmac: brcmf_nvram_handle_idle warning: ln=1:col=20: ignoring invalid character
[ 155.180806] brcmfmac: brcmf_nvram_handle_idle warning: ln=1:col=44: ignoring invalid character
[ 155.195971] brcmfmac: brcmf_nvram_handle_idle warning: ln=1:col=63: ignoring invalid character
