If strlen(disk_name) is less than 5 (and I don't know if that's actually
possible), this well end up doing out-of-bounds access.

We have a strstarts() helper, could you also add a strends() helper that
handles this correctly? Something like

/**
 * strends - does @str end with @suffix?
 * @str: string to examine
 * @suffix: suffix to look for.
 */
static inline bool strends(const char *str, const char *suffix)
{
	size_t n = strlen(str);
        size_t m = strlen(suffix);
        return n >= m && !memcmp(str + n - m, suffix, m);
}

[or name it str_has_suffix() or str_ends_with(), "strends" is not
particularly readable, it's unfortunate that the existing strstarts is
spelled like that].
