Thank you for your review.
I believe nul-terminated is correct: nul is the character, and null is the pointer.
See:

I'll check the tree and submit another patch to fix this.

There seems indeed to be some inconsistencies around bootmeths versus
bootmethods.
To me, we should use 'bootmeth' everywhere.
Simon, as the maintainer of bootflow, do you agree ?
I can spin up another patch to fix this.
