Subject: [PATCH v4] lib/string: Introduce sysfs_streqcase

As the name shows, it checks if strings are equal in case insensitive
manner.

For example, drivers/infiniband/ulp/rtrs/rtrs-clt-sysfs.c uses
strncasecmp to check that the input via sysfs is "mi". But it would
work even-if the input is "min-wrongcommand".

I found some more cases using strncasecmp to check the entire string
such as rtrs-clt-sysfs.c does. drivers/pnp/interface.c checks
"disable" command with strncasecmp but it would also work if the
command is "disable-wrong".
