I see we have a mix of null-terminated and nul-terminated in the tree,
is the latter correct?

Thank you for your review.

I believe nul-terminated is correct: nul is the character, and null is the 
pointer.

See:

Ah, thanks for the pointers, makes much more sense to me now :)

I'll check the tree and submit another patch to fix this.

Shouldn't this be bootmeths here as well?

(And there's another occurrence in boot/bootmeth-uclass.c

There seems indeed to be some inconsistencies around bootmeths versus
bootmethods.

To me, we should use 'bootmeth' everywhere.

Simon, as the maintainer of bootflow, do you agree ?

I can spin up another patch to fix this.

"""
For version 2, a new naming scheme is used as above:

   - bootdev is used instead of bootdevice, because 'device' is overused,
       is everywhere in U-Boot, can be confused with udevice
   - bootmeth - because 'method' is too vanilla, appears 1300 times in
       U-Boot
"""

SO I think we should change it to bootmeth(s) indeed.
