Subject: [patch v2] libertas: potential oops in debugfs

From: Dan Carpenter <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 30 Oct 2013 20:12:51 +0300

If we do a zero size allocation then it will oops.  Also we can't be
sure the user passes us a NUL terminated string so I've added a
terminator.

This code can only be triggered by root.
