#2085: Thou shalt not arbitrarily munge data.
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
Reporter: krstic | Owner: dilinger
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: CTest
Component: kernel | Version: Git as of bug date
Keywords: | Verified: 0
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
The device tree exports manufacturing tag information verbatim. The kernel
munges the data by terminating it with a newline and a null-byte, in that
order. It needs to not do this, and instead pass on the device tree
information to userland verbatim.
The relevant code is in fs/promfs/promfs.c:82.
