I'm ok with the content of the patch, but this has 2 be split in 2
commits, which fixes different things.
1/ cmdline: fix dynamic tokens parsing
[contains what Adrien suggested = all your patch but memset]
When using dynamic tokens, the result buffer contains pointers
to some location inside the result buffer. When the content of
the temporary buffer is copied in the final one, these pointers
still point to the temporary buffer.
This works until the temporary buffer is kept intact, but the
next commit introduces a memset() that breaks this assumption.
This commit renames the buffers, and ensures that the pointers
point to the valid location, by recopying the buffer before
invoking f().
Fixes: 9b3fbb051d2e ("cmdline: fix parsing")

2/ cmdline: avoid garbage in unused fields of parsed result
[contains the memset() only]
The result buffer was not initialized before parsing, inducing
garbage in unused fields or padding of the parsed structure.
Initialize the result buffer each time before parsing.
Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
Cc: sta...@dpdk.org
Thoughts?
Adrien, are you also ok?
Thanks,
Olivier
