Subject: add argv_split()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d84d1cc7647c7e4f77d517e2d87b4a106a0420d9;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

add argv_split()

argv_split() is a helper function which takes a string, splits it at
whitespace, and returns a NULL-terminated argv vector.  This is
deliberately simple - it does no quote processing of any kind.

[ Seems to me that this is something which is already being done in
  the kernel, but I couldn't find any other implementations, either to
  steal or replace.  Keep an eye out. ]
