From f424800c2a23d9fdc1355bdaf46ad2bc89741436 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Law Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2026 22:32:10 +0000 Subject: lib/base64: fix copy-pasted @padding doc in base64_decode() The @padding kernel-doc for base64_decode() says "whether to append '=' padding characters", which was copy-pasted from base64_encode(). In the decode context, it controls whether the input is expected to include padding, not whether to append it.
