Subject: [PATCH 4.19 097/306] usbip: tools: fix atoi() on non-null terminated string

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

[ Upstream commit e325808c0051b16729ffd472ff887c6cae5c6317 ]

Currently the call to atoi is being passed a single char string
that is not null terminated, so there is a potential read overrun
along the stack when parsing for an integer value.  Fix this by
instead using a 2 char string that is initialized to all zeros
to ensure that a 1 char read into the string is always terminated
with a \0.

Detected by cppcheck:
"Invalid atoi() argument nr 1. A nul-terminated string is required."
