The go_devadd_str[] array is two characters too small to hold the
address so we corrupt memory.

I've changed the user space API slightly and I don't have a way to test
if this breaks anything.  In the original code we truncated away the
last digit of the address and the NUL terminator so it was already a bit
broken.

Nothing seems to be broken.
