No upstream commit exists for this patch. GDT driver was removed from
kernel in commit 0653c358d2dc ("scsi: Drop gdth driver").

For GDT_PCIMPR controllers, the driver copies up to 256 bytes from the
controller event buffer and later handles the result as a C string.

If the firmware does not provide a NUL byte within the buffer,
gdth_log_event() may read beyond event_string through printk() and
sprintf().

Force the last byte of event_string to NUL after copying it from the
controller. This preserves shorter strings and safely truncates an
unterminated full-length event.

Since this driver has been gone for the past few years, a maintainer ack will
be appreciated before we pull this in.

Does anyone even care?
