Nope.  You're right.  That bug has been there since before the start of
git.  We could fix it by doing:

diff --git a/drivers/isdn/pcbit/drv.c b/drivers/isdn/pcbit/drv.c
index 4172e22..b156d5b 100644
--- a/drivers/isdn/pcbit/drv.c
+++ b/drivers/isdn/pcbit/drv.c
@@ -1053,7 +1053,7 @@ static void pcbit_set_msn(struct pcbit_dev *dev, char *list)
 		else
 			back->next = ptr;
 		back = ptr;
-		sp += len;
+		sp += len + 1;
 	} while (cp);
 }
