Use sysfs_streq() in device_find_child_by_name() to allow it to use a sysfs input string that might contain a trailing newline.
The other "device by name" interfaces, {bus,driver,class}_find_device_by_name(), already account for sysfs strings. Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gre...@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: "Rafael J.
