Commit f0e386ee0c0b ("printk: fix buffer overflow potential for print_text()") added string termination in record_print_text(). However it used the wrong base pointer for adding the terminator. This led to a 0-byte being written somewhere beyond the buffer. Use the correct base pointer when adding the terminator.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
