The 'name' variable in vtd_find_add_as function is not initialized
now, so when in gdb, we will got following output:

(gdb) p name
$1 = "vtd-00.0\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\060\330\377\377\377\177\000\000\001\000\000\000\000\000\000\000p\330\377\377\377\177\000\000\353\362\372VUU\000\000p\330\377\377\377\177\000\000  \000\000\060b\000\000\220\021\000\000\360a\000\000\200\"\002\000\020a\000\000  \000\000\060b\000\000\200\332\377\377\377\177\000\000\240\330\377\377\377\177\000\000<\364\372VUU\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000  \000\000\060b\000"

After this patch, it is more clear:

(gdb) p name
$1 = "vtd-00.0", '\000' <repeats 119 times>

There are hundreds of other occurrences of this same phenomenon.  It's
not a bug, it's just how the debugger chooses to print character arrays.
