The function simple_write_to_buffer() doesn't add string termination

ouch, good catch, thanks! We have this correct in soc/sof/trace.c, but not
here. To keep up with kernel style, maybe:
+ string = kzalloc(count + 1, GFP_KERNEL);
if (!string)
return -ENOMEM;
+ string[count] = '\0';
kzalloc() returns zeros, so no need for this.
Right, Other places use kmalloc(), here kzalloc() doesn't need to set 0.
Will drop it in the v2.
Thanks.
Hui.
