What about adding if statement as below ?
(such as builtin-ftrace.c:perf_ftrace_config)

          if (prefixcmp(var, "diff."))
                  return 0;

> +	if (!strcmp(var, "diff.order")) {

And.. var + 5 instead of var as below ?
(such as perf.c:pager_command_config)

          if (!strcmp(var + 5, "order"))

It is just my opinion. :)

Thanks,
Taeung
