The fw_version field in pds_core_fw_name_info is a fixed 32-byte array
that may not be null-terminated if firmware writes exactly 32
characters. When passed to devlink_info_version_stored_put(), this
could cause a read beyond the array boundary, potentially leaking
stack contents to userspace or causing a crash if the read crosses
into an unmapped page.

Null-terminate the firmware version string in place before passing it
to the devlink API.
