[PATCH net-next v2 3/8] net: pktgen: fix hex32_arg parsing for short reads

[Peter Seiderer]

Fix hex32_arg parsing for short reads (here 7 hex digits instead of the
expected 8), shift result only on successful input parsing.

- before the patch

	$ echo "mpls 0000123" > /proc/net/pktgen/lo\@0
	$ grep mpls /proc/net/pktgen/lo\@0
	     mpls: 00001230
	Result: OK: mpls=00001230

- with patch applied

	$ echo "mpls 0000123" > /proc/net/pktgen/lo\@0
	$ grep mpls /proc/net/pktgen/lo\@0
	     mpls: 00000123
	Result: OK: mpls=00000123
