net/mlx5: Fix incorrect raw command length parsing

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit 603b7bcff824740500ddfa001d7a7168b0b38542 ]

The NULL character was not set correctly for the string containing
the command length, this caused failures reading the output of the
command due to a random length. The fix is to initialize the output
length string.
