powerpc: Add missing NULL terminator to avoid boot panic on PPC40x
The missing NULL terminator can cause a panic on PPC405 boards during boot: Linux/PowerPC load: console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/mtdblock1 rootfstype=squashfs,jffs2 noinitrd init=/etc/preinit Finalizing device tree... flat tree at 0x6a5160 bootconsole [udbg0] enabled Page fault in user mode with in_atomic() = 1 mm = (null) NIP = c0275f50 MSR = fffffffe Oops: Weird page fault, sig: 11 [#1] PowerPC 40x Platform Modules linked in: NIP: c0275f50 LR: c0275f60 CTR: c0280000 REGS: c0275eb0 TRAP: 636f7265 Not tainted (3.7.1) MSR: fffffffe <VEC,VSX,EE,PR,FP,ME,SE,BE,IR,DR,PMM,RI> CR: c06a6190 XER: 00000001 TASK = c02662a8[0] 'swapper' THREAD: c0274000 GPR00: c0275ec0 c000c658 c027c4bf 00000000 c0275ee0 c000a0ec c020a1a8 c020a1f0 GPR08: c020f631 c020f404 c025f078 c025f080 c0275f10 Call Trace: ---[ end trace 31fd0ba7d8756001 ]--- Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task! The panic happens since commit 9597abe00c1bab2aedce6b49866bf6d1e81c9eed (sections: fix section conflicts in arch/powerpc), however the root cause of this is that the NULL terminator were not added in commit a4f740cf33f7f6c164bbde3c0cdbcc77b0c4997c (of/flattree: Add of_flat_dt_match() helper function).
