From: Archit Taneja <archit@xxxxxx> The function overlay_manager_store currently fails if the sysfs input is a prefix string of an existing overlay manager name. This occurs because strncmp compares the two strings only till the length of the input sysfs string. So a sysfs input "lcd" will match manager name "lcd2" which is incorrect behavior. The use of sysfs_streq here will prevent this false positive match to occur.
