[PATCH v3] [BZ #17273] fix incorrect mount table entry parsing in __getmntent_r()


When mount entry contains only four fields and have more
then one space or tab at the and, mp.mnt_freq and
mp.mnt_passno will be set to some specific values as side
effect from parsing of previus mount entry. It is because
sscanf(""," %d %d ", &a, &b) returns -1, but this case
is  unprocessed. Values of mp.mnt_freq and  mp.mnt_passno
stays unchanged. This patch is attempt to fix described issue
by removing trailing tabs and spaces.

	[BZ #17273]
	* misc/mntent_r.c (__getmntent_r): Cut off trailing spaces
	and tabs from buffer before parsing fstab entry.
	* misc/tst-mntent.c (main): Add test for mount entry with
	trailing spaces and tabs.
