This addresses: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14998 We copy some strings into "event" and kmemcheck complains that the bytes after the NULL terminators are uninitialized. That's true but it's harmless. The "event" struct is used in acpi_system_read_event() and we don't read past the terminator. This patch just silences the warning.
