[PATCH trivial v2] ata: libata-eh: Remove unnecessary snprintf arithmetic

[Levente Kurusa]

Remove an unnecessary arithmetic operation from a call to snprintf, because
the size parameter of snprintf includes the trailing null space.
Also, initialize the buffer on definition instead of a memset call.

Applied to libata/for-3.13.

Thanks.
