This should be optimized to not copy if there's no preceding whitespace
and p == q:

Subject: [PATCH] x86/cpu: Trim model id whitespace
We did try trimming whitespace surrounding the 'model name' field
in /proc/cpuinfo since reportedly some userspace uses it in string
comparisons and there were discrepancies:
[thetango@prarit ~]# grep "^model name" /proc/cpuinfo | uniq -c | sed 's/\ /_/g'
______1_model_name :_AMD_Opteron(TM)_Processor_6272
_____63_model_name :_AMD_Opteron(TM)_Processor_6272_________________
However, there were issues with overlapping buffers, string sizes and
non-byte-sized copies in the previous proposed solutions; see Link tags
below for the whole farce.
So, instead of diddling with this more, let's simply extend what was
there originally with trimming any present trailing whitespace. Final
result is really simple and obvious.
Testing with the most insane model IDs qemu can generate, looks good:
.model_id = " My funny model ID CPU ",
______4_model_name :_My_funny_model_ID_CPU
.model_id = "My funny model ID CPU ",
______4_model_name :_My_funny_model_ID_CPU
.model_id = " My funny model ID CPU",
______4_model_name :_My_funny_model_ID_CPU
.model_id = " ",
______4_model_name :__
.model_id = "",
______4_model_name :_15/02
