    brcmsmac: don't leak kernel memory via printk() · 1d240d37
    Brian Norris authored
    Debug code prints the fifo name via custom dev_warn() wrappers. The
    fifo_names array is only non-zero when debugging is manually enabled,
    which is all well and good. However, it's *not* good that this array
    uses zero-length arrays in the non-debug case, and so it doesn't
    actually have any memory allocated to it. This means that as far as we
    know, fifo_names[i] actually points to garbage memory.
    
    I've seen this in my log:
    
    [ 4601.205511] brcmsmac bcma0:1: wl0: brcms_c_d11hdrs_mac80211: �GeL txop exceeded phylen 137/256 dur 1602/1504
    
    So let's give this array space enough to fill it with a NULL byte.
