From: Oscar Alejandro Sánchez Lucero <aleszlucero@gmail.com>

cvm_oct_common_init() checks whether dev->name is present in the
comma-separated pow_send_list module parameter using strstr(). This
causes false positives when one interface name is a prefix of another
(for example, matching "eth1" when pow_send_list contains "eth10").

Copy pow_send_list to a temporary buffer, tokenize it with strsep(),
and compare each comma-separated entry with strcmp().
