Subject: [PATCH v2] ipv4: netfilter: always let NUL terminated string ended
 by '\0'


For NUL terminated string, need always be sure of ended by '\0'.

'prefix' max length is 128 (NF_LOG_PREFIXLEN), and 'pm->prefix' max
length is 32 (ULOG_PREFIX_LEN), so really need notice it.

'pm' is 'struct ulog_packet_msg_t' which may be copied to user mode
(defined in "include/uapi/..."), so can not use strlcpy() instead of.
