Subject: [PATCH 51/81] isdn/gigaset: fix zero size border case in debug dump

3.5.7.6 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tilman Schmidt <tilman@...p.cc>

commit d721a1752ba544df8d7d36959038b26bc92bdf80 upstream.

If subtracting 12 from l leaves zero we'd do a zero size allocation,
leading to an oops later when we try to set the NUL terminator.
