Remove an unnecessary arithmetic operation from a call to snprintf, because
the size parameter of snprintf includes the trailing null byte.

While at it, can you please remove the above and just initialize the
buffer to "" on definition?

Thanks.

Remove an unnecessary arithmetic operation from a call to snprintf, because
the size parameter of snprintf includes the trailing null space.
Also, initialize the buffer on definition instead of a memset call.

Applied to libata/for-3.13.

Thanks.
