This code is supposed to search ->adapter_hwpath[] and replace the second colon with a NUL character. Unfortunately, the boundary checks that ensure we don't go beyond the end of the buffer have a couple problems. Imagine that the string has no colons. In that case, in the first loop, we read one space beyond the end of the buffer and then exit the loop. In the next loop, we increment once, read two characters beyond the end of the buffer and then exit. Then after the loop we put a NUL character two characters past the end of the buffer.
