This patch sets mupltiple NVMe boot-devices for more robust boot.
Scenario where NVMe multipaths are available, all the available bootpaths (Max 5)
will be added as the boot-device.

grub_strstr() may return NULL. If it is not possible here then it should
be explained.


NULL check not required here as this function works only on install_device as "/dev/nvme3n1p1". I'll add the comment in the next version!

Missing space after ",".

Sure, I'll add a space after ','.

Missing NULL check too...


Not required as the check above "if (grub_strstr (splitter_ep->d_name, "nvme"))".

Something is off with indention...

Sure, I'll check and correct this!

You do not need this change.


We need this function as this is used by the function "of_path_get_nvme_nsid" we are using.
