Subject: [PATCH][V2] Revert "staging: fsl-mc: be consistent when checking strcmp() return"

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

The previous fix removed the equal to zero comparisons by the strcmps and
now the function always returns true. Revert this change to restore the
original correctly functioning code.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1452267 ("Constant expression result")

This reverts commit b93ad9a067e1515af42da7d56bc61f1a25075f94.
