[ Upstream commit d43fdae7bac2def8c4314b5a49822cb7f08a45f1 ]
Even if properly initialized, the lvname array (i.e., strings) is read from disk, and might contain corrupt data (e.g., lack the null terminating character for strings).
So, make sure the partition name string used in pr_warn() has the null terminating character.
