+Subject: [PATCH] kern/partition: Check for NULL before dereferencing input
+ string
+
+There is the possibility that the value of str comes from an external
+source and continuing to use it before ever checking its validity is
+wrong. So, needs fixing.
+
+Additionally, drop unneeded part initialization.
