[PATCH 1/3 v2] perf alias: Remove trailing newline when reading sysfs files

From: Thomas Richter
Date: Fri Jun 15 2018 - 06:11:34 EST


Remove a trailing newline when reading sysfs file contents
such as /sys/devices/cpum_cf/events/TX_NC_TEND.
This shows when verbose option -v is used.

Output before:
tx_nc_tend -> 'cpum_cf'/'event=0x008d
'/

Output after:
tx_nc_tend -> 'cpum_cf'/'event=0x8d'/
