[Xen-devel] [PATCH] libxl/arm: Fix build on arm64 + acpi w/ gcc 8.2

[Christopher Clark <christopher.w.clark@xxxxxxxxx>]

Add zero-padding to #defined ACPI table strings that are copied. 
Provides sufficient characters to satisfy the length required to
fully populate the destination and prevent array-bounds warnings.

Signed-off-by: Christopher Clark <christopher.clark6@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Please add this patch to the backport list for the next minor 4.11
release.

Prior to this: gcc 8.2 objects to memcpy past bounds:
