[PATCH 2/2] partitions/aix: append null character to print data from disk

From: Mauricio Faria de Oliveira
Date: Wed Jul 25 2018 - 21:46:54 EST


Even if properly initialized, the lvname array (i.e., strings)
is read from disk, and might contain corrupt data (e.g., lack
the null terminating character for strings).

So, make sure the partition name string used in pr_warn() has
the null terminating character.

Fixes: 6ceea22bbbc8 ("partitions: add aix lvm partition support files")
