The following buffer overflow BUG was observed on an HPE system.
ghes_edac_register() called strlen() on an uninitialized label,
which had non-zero values from krealloc_array().

In dimm_setup_label(), *device was set but *bank was null, which
left the label uninitialized. *bank is set from SMBIOS type 17
Bank Locator, offset 11h.  This system had this value set to 0x0
(null string).

Change dimm_setup_label() to always initialize the label and use
"NA" in case bank or device is null.

 detected buffer overflow in __fortify_strlen
