[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3] examples/vm_power_manager: fix string null termination

[David Hunt <david.hunt@intel.com>]

coverity complains about a null-termination after a read,
so we terminate once we exit the do-while read loop.

Coverity issue: 337680
Fixes: a63504a90f ("examples/power: add JSON string handling")
CC: stable@dpdk.org

v2: Move null termination outside of do-while.
v3: Simplify null termimation
