SCSI: fix new bug in scsi_dev_info_list string matching 

Commit b704f70ce2 ("SCSI: fix bug in scsi_dev_info_list matching")
changed the way vendor- and model-string matching was carried out in the
routine that looks up entries in a SCSI devinfo list.  The new matching
code failed to take into account the case of a maximum-length string; in
such cases it could end up testing for a terminating '\0' byte beyond
the end of the memory allocated to the string.  This out-of-bounds bug
was detected by UBSAN.

I don't know if anybody has actually encountered this bug.  The symptom
would be that a device entry in the blacklist might not be matched
properly if it contained an 8-character vendor name or a 16-character
model name.  Such entries certainly exist in scsi_static_device_list.

This patch fixes the problem by adding a check for a maximum-length
string before the '\0' test.
