From: Shravan Kumar Ramani
Date: Wed Jul 02 2025 - 06:09:42 EST


This submission contains 2 patches:

Patch 1 fixes an issue with matching an input event_name string with the
list of supported events in the event_list due to the trailing newline char.

Patch 2 adds checks to validate the input for event and enable fields, and
prevents the user from writing invalid values to these fields.

v1 -> v2
Split single patch into 2 patches addressing each fix separately

v2 -> v3
Patch 1: Remove the trailing newline character before comparing strings
Patch 2: Use kstrtobool() instead of kstrtouint() which would validate the input

v3 -> v4
Patch 1: Use kstrdup_and_replace() to remove the newline char.

platform/mellanox: mlxbf-pmc: Remove newline char from event name
input
