I looked into all other patches and the function is the same in every one.

Rip it.

As I said: Jesse's decision. The smaller the patch is the easier get's the 
review.

Yes, you have garbage on the stack. But snprintf() does not care what is in 
the buffer before it starts and the result is 0-terminated afterwards.

I would not bet on this. It has been there and copied around from one driver 
to the other. If we can get rid of those I guess noone would be upset. And 
you introduced at least two of them ;) Jesse?
