[PATCH 00/22] treewide: Replace strnicmp with strncasecmp

From: Rasmus Villemoes
Date: Tue Sep 16 2014 - 16:52:13 EST


The kernel used to contain two functions for length-delimited,
case-insensitive string comparison, strnicmp with correct semantics
and a slightly buggy strncasecmp. The latter is the POSIX name, so
strnicmp was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper
for the new strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.

To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in
the future, and to avoid the extra indirection cost, do
s/strnicmp/strncasecmp/g.

Sorry for the unimaginative and identical commit messages.
