===============
commit 630ba0cc7a6dbafbdee43795617c872b35cde1b4 upstream.
The variable_matches() function can currently read "var_name[len]", for
example when:
- var_name[0] == 'a',
- len == 1
- match_name points to the NUL-terminated string "ab".
This function is supposed to accept "var_name" inputs that are not
NUL-terminated (hence the "len" parameter"). Document the function, and
access "var_name[*match]" only if "*match" is smaller than "len".
