[PATCH][next][RFC] qed: Initialize debug string array
From: Tim Gardner
Date: Wed Oct 06 2021 - 10:03:21 EST
Coverity complains of an uninitialized variable.
CID 120847 (#1 of 1): Uninitialized scalar variable (UNINIT)
3. uninit_use_in_call: Using uninitialized value *sw_platform_str when calling qed_dump_str_param. [show details]
1344 offset += qed_dump_str_param(dump_buf + offset,
1345 dump, "sw-platform", sw_platform_str);
Fix this by initializing the string array with '\0'.
Fixes: 6c95dd8f0aa1d ("qed: Update debug related changes")

I'm not sure what the value of sw_platform_str should be, but this patch is
clearly a bandaid and not a proper solution.
