Subject: bcache: Strip endline when writing the label through sysfs
From: Gabriel de Perthuis <g2p.code@xxxxxxxxx>
commit aee6f1cfff3ce240eb4b43b41ca466b907acbd2e upstream.
sysfs attributes with unusual characters have crappy failure modes
in Squeeze (udev 164); later versions of udev are unaffected.
This should make these characters more unusual.
