From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx> commit c7af4ecdffe1537ba8aeed0ac12c3326f908df43 upstream. Fix to remove tailing spaces after value. If there is a space after value, the bootconfig failed to remove it because it applies strim() before replacing the delimiter with null. For example, foo = var # comment was parsed as below. foo="var " but user will expect foo="var" This fixes it by applying strim() after removing the delimiter.
