On some platforms there are some platform devices created with
invalid names. For example: "HID-SENSOR-INT-020b?.39.auto" instead
of "HID-SENSOR-INT-020b.39.auto"
This string include some invalid characters, hence it will fail to
properly load the driver which will handle this custom sensor. Also
it is a problem for some user space tools, which parse the device
names from ftrace and dmesg.
This is because the string, real_usage, is not NULL terminated and
printed with %s to form device name.
To address this, we initialize the real_usage string with 0s.
Philipp Jungkamp created this fix, I'm simply submitting it. I've
verified it fixes bugzilla issue 217169

Why is not Philip in the SoB list?
Anyway the original patch made it to stable, so:
Fixes: 98c062e82451 ("HID: hid-sensor-custom: Allow more custom iio sensors")
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
and with those you can add:

Oh, sorry, I got feedback and assumed it needed more work on the
changelog. I also forgot to copy over Phillip's SoB line so this one is
probably worse than the original. The original was just fine, please
ignore this one.

You don't need the above two lines. You can add
Original-by: Philipp Jungkamp <p.jungkamp@gmx.net>

SoB denotes that you reported this and tested. Otherwise shall we start
adding Reported and Tested tags to all of our commits?

I just copied it from someone else's post on the mailing list, I
thought it was part of the standard lkml vernacular but I just looked
it up and it's explicitly forbidden in
Documentation/process/maintainer-top.rst line 385. So the answer is no.
I'll not use it again.
