From: Linus Arver <linusa@xxxxxxxxxx>
Previously, trailer_info_get() computed the trailer block end position
by
(1) checking for the opts->no_divider flag and optionally calling
find_patch_start() to find the "patch start" location (patch_start), and
(2) calling find_trailer_end() to find the end of the trailer block
using patch_start as a guide, saving the return value into
"trailer_end".
The logic in (1) was awkward because the variable "patch_start" is
misleading if there is no patch in the input. The logic in (2) was
misleading because it could be the case that no trailers are in the
input (yet we are setting a "trailer_end" variable before even searching
for trailers, which happens later in find_trailer_start()). The name
"find_trailer_end" was misleading because that function did not look for
any trailer block itself --- instead it just computed the end position
of the log message in the input where the end of the trailer block (if
it exists) would be (because trailer blocks must always come after the
end of the log message).
Combine the logic in (1) and (2) together into find_patch_start() by
renaming it to find_end_of_log_message(). The end of the log message is
the starting point which find_trailer_start() needs to start searching
backward to parse individual trailers (if any).
