[PATCH] ecryptfs: fix string overflow on long cipher names

From: Eric Sandeen
Date: Tue Dec 18 2007 - 10:51:39 EST


Passing a cipher name > 32 chars on mount results in an overflow
when the cipher name is printed, because the last character
in the struct ecryptfs_key_tfm's cipher_name string was never
zeroed.
