Hello Markus, In kernel v4.11 elevator_change() only has a single caller and that caller passes an elevator name with no trailing whitespace. I am aware that the elevator_change() function is exported and hence could be used by out-of-tree kernel drivers. However, we do not care about potential behavior changes for out-of-tree drivers.
