Subject: [PATCH] cpumask: Omit terminating null byte in cpumap_print_{list,bitmask}_to_buf
Git-commit: c86a2d9058c5a4a05d20ef89e699b7a6b2c89da6
Patch-mainline: v5.15-rc4
References: bsc#1192611

The changes in the patch series [1] introduced a terminating null byte
when reading from cpulist or cpumap sysfs files, for example:

  $ xxd /sys/devices/system/node/node0/cpulist
  00000000: 302d 310a 00                             0-1..

Before this change, the output looked as follows:

  $ xxd /sys/devices/system/node/node0/cpulist
  00000000: 302d 310a                                0-1.

Fix this regression by excluding the terminating null byte from the
returned length in cpumap_print_list_to_buf and
cpumap_print_bitmask_to_buf.
