Paul Mundt 1f2b69f9bd [PATCH] fb: sm501fb off-by-1 sysfs store
Currently sm501fb_crtsrc_store() won't allow the routing to be changed via
echos from userspace in to the sysfs file.  The reason for this is that the
strnicmp() for both heads uses a sizeof() for the string length, which ends
up being strlen() + 1 (\0 in the normal case, but the echo gives a newline,
which is where the issue occurs), this then causes a mismatch and
subsequently bails with the -EINVAL.

In addition to this, the hardcoded lengths were then used for the store
length that was returned, which ended up being erroneous and resulting in a
write error.  There's also no point in returning anything but the full
length since it will -EINVAL out on a mismatch well before then anyways.

sizeof("string") is great for making sure you have space in your buffer,
but rather less so for string comparisons :-)
