The first version of this patch didn't allow for the request firmware case which does multiple parsing passes on the parameter. This was discussed in the thread '2.6.13-rc6-mm1' gregkh-driver-sysfs-strip_leading_trailing_whitespace-3.patch should replace in 2.6.13-rc6-mm1 gregkh-driver-sysfs-strip_leading_trailing_whitespace.patch Signed-off-by: Jon Smirl -- Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com
