When `btrfs filesystem label /foo bar` command is invoked, it will pass
the buffer allocated in the argv array directly to set_label_mounted()
and then to the BTRFS_IOC_SET_FSLABEL ioctl.
However, the kernel code handling the ioctl will always try to copy
BTRFS_LABEL_SIZE bytes[1] from the userland pointer. Under certain
conditions and when the label is small enough, the command will fail
with:
[root@localhost /]# btrfs filesystem label /mnt f
ERROR: unable to set label Bad address
Fix this by making sure we pass a BTRFS_LABEL_SIZE sized buffer to the
ioctl containing the desired label.
