Subject: [PATCH 4.14 055/157] of: unittest: for strings, account for trailing \0 in property length field

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stefan M Schaeckeler <sschaeck@...co.com>

commit 3b9cf7905fe3ab35ab437b5072c883e609d3498d upstream.

For strings, account for trailing \0 in property length field:

This is consistent with how dtc builds string properties.

Function __of_prop_dup() would misbehave on such properties as it duplicates
properties based on the property length field creating new string values
without trailing \0s.
