[PATCH] parport: buffer overflow fix
Fix potential buffer overflow in case the device ID did not end in semicolon. Also might fail to negotiate back to IEEE1284_MODE_COMPAT in case of failure. parport_device_id did not return what Documentation/parport-lowlevel.txt said, so I changed it to match it. Determining device ID length is overly complicated, but Tim Waugh recalled on linux-parport seeing some buggy device that might need it.
