What problem do you want to fix here?
I think, presently iblock_set_configfs_dev_params() just ignores input after a possible zero byte, which AFAICS is the usual way to handle such 'abnormal' input.

Of course, strictly taken it is a bug to return 'count' without having processed count bytes. OTOH, iblock_set_configfs_dev_params also silently ignores unknown parameter strings.
If you want to have strict error handling in such sys- or config-FS callbacks, you have to do a lot of work ...
