Subject: chmem: Skip optarg duplication
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ea506194ebad0b1b1f147d4782fc7689c44568f0;p=thirdparty%2Futil-linux.git

chmem: Skip optarg duplication

The -z argument is only used for parsing without any modification of the
input string. Skip the duplication to fix memory leaks if -z is supplied
multiple times.
