Commit d63c7dd5bcb9 ("ipr: Fix out-of-bounds null overwrite") removed the
end of line handling when storing the update_fw sysfs attribute. This
changed the userpace API because it started refusing writes terminated
by a line feed, which broke the update tools we already have.
This patch re-adds that handling, so both a write terminated by a line
feed or not can make it through with the update.
