Subject: [PATCH 5/5] perf buildid: Fix possible unterminated readlink() result buffer
From: Thomas Jarosch <thomas.jarosch@...ra2net.com>
The readlink function doesn't guarantee that a '\0' will be put at the
end of the provided buffer if there is no space left.
No need to do "buf[len] = '\0';" since the buffer is allocated with
zalloc().
