Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
[ Upstream commit bd125a084091396f3e796bb3dc009940d9771811 ]
When the ABI was updated to prevent same name w/different args, it missed an important corner case when fields don't end with a space. Typically, space is used for fields to help separate them, like "u8 field1; u8 field2". If no spaces are used, like "u8 field1;u8 field2", then the parsing works for the first time. However, the match check fails on a subsequent register, leading to confusion.
This is because the match check uses argv_split() and assumes that all fields will be split upon the space. When spaces are used, we get back { "u8", "field1;" }, without spaces we get back { "u8", "field1;u8" }. This causes a mismatch, and the user program gets back -EADDRINUSE.
Add a method to detect this case before calling argv_split(). If found force a space after the field separator character ';'. This ensures all cases work properly for matching.
With this fix, the following are all treated as matching: u8 field1;u8 field2 u8 field1; u8 field2 u8 field1;\tu8 field2 u8 field1;\nu8 field2
