What about introducing something like streq() to do this
automatically? This is ugly....
#define streq(a, b) ... if (_buildin_constant(b)) ...
?
- if (!strncmp(val, "enable", strlen("enable"))) {
+ if (!strncmp(val, "enable", sizeof("enable") - 1)) {
While you're at it, there's no point using strncmp when you know the
length of one of the strings beforehand. Just use memcmp, and don't
subtract 1 from the sizeof value.

Interestingly, many (all?) of the changes in that patch are wrong
because they don't try to match the terminating '\0'. As a result,
they will match against extensions of the target string as well as the
target string itself.
strNcmp compare N bytes - http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v3.5/lib/string.c#L270
