[PATCH] soc: qcom: cmd-db: Drop NUL bytes from debugfs output

[Bjorn Andersson]

The debugfs dump of Command DB relies uses %*pEp to print the resource
identifiers, with escaping of non-printable characters.
But p (ESCAPE_NP) does not escape NUL characters, so for identifiers
less than 8 bytes in length the output will retain these.

This does not cause an issue while looking at the dump in the terminal
(no known complaints at least), but when programmatically consuming the
debugfs output the extra characters are unwanted.

Change the fixed 8-byte sizeof() to a dynamic strnlen() to avoid
printing these NUL characters.
