ipr: Fix regression when loading firmware
commit 21b81716c6bff24cda52dc75588455f879ddbfe9 upstream. Commit d63c7dd5bcb9 ("ipr: Fix out-of-bounds null overwrite") removed the end of line handling when storing the update_fw sysfs attribute. This changed the userpace API because it started refusing writes terminated by a line feed, which broke the update tools we already have. This patch re-adds that handling, so both a write terminated by a line feed or not can make it through with the update.
