I do not know, sorry.
I would be amazed if anybody is putting newlines into their firmware
path; that would be kind of a silly thing to do.
That said, I've been amazed before.
I'll go ahead and apply the docs patch, but it still doesn't really seem
like the right fix to me.
I will submit a patch that strips off newlines from sysfs provided
firmware paths and if this turns out to break someone's use case it
could still be reverted, sounds good?
