When mount entry contains only four fields and have more
then one space or tab at the and, mp.mnt_freq and
mp.mnt_passno will be set to some specific values as side
effect from parsing of previus mount entry. It is because
sscanf(""," %d %d ", &a, &b) returns -1, but this case
is  unprocessed. Values of mp.mnt_freq and  mp.mnt_passno
stays unchanged. This patch is attempt to fix described issue
by removing trailing tabs and spaces.

This should look like:

	[BZ #17273]
	* misc/mntent_r.c (__getmntent_r): ...

and the actual text should be specific about how it changes the behavior.
