[PATCH] ppc64: Fix a device-tree bug on Apple's
Apple's Open Firmware has a funny bug when creating the /cpus nodes where it leaves a dangling '\0' character in the CPU name which ends up appearing in the full path of the node. This is bogus and confuses /proc/device-tree badly. This patch strips those bogus zero's from the node full path when reading the device-tree from Open Firmware. The "name" property is not modified and still contains the spurrious 0 (it basically contains 0 tailing 0 instead of one) but that shouldn't be a problem. An equivalent patch for ppc32 will follow shortly Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
