[PATCH 1/3] lib: string_get_size: Remove redundant prefixes

From: Rasmus Villemoes
Date: Fri Dec 12 2014 - 09:44:53 EST


While 3c9f3681d0b4 says that Z and Y are included in preparation for
128 bit computers, they just waste .text currently. If and when we get
u128, string_get_size needs updating anyway (and ISO needs to come up
with four more prefixes).

Also there's no need to include and test for the NULL sentinel; once
we reach "E" size is at most 18. [The test is also wrong; it should be
units_str[units][i+1]; if we've reached NULL we're already doomed.]
