This still is pointless as long as you keep the explicit null-termination
in the next line, the patch still doesn't change anything significant.
The file is maintained by Ishizaki Kou, if he would prefer to take a
patch replacing the two lines with one, that's fine with me, otherwise
I just wouldn't bother. You still only gain a few bytes of inittext, but
that is discarded at boot time.
