[dm-devel] [PATCH v3 2/3] init: boot to device-mapper targets without an initr*

Hi,

I'm having the problem that the device - for example - won't come available at "/dev/mapper/lroot" but at "/dev/mapper/lroot ". There is an additional space at the end of the name, which is...lets say not so good. The problem is exists already in the dm_setup_args.name field, so I think is a problem parsing the arguments.

I'm new around here, so I don't know how things work. Should I look into the problem myself and post a fix, or will the author of the patch?
