[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] 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 after exiting the do-while loop. The position
is conditional on whether idx is within the buffer or at the
end of the buffer.

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