Reverts #6618
PR #6618 broke syslog, and it must be reverted (at least temporarily).
The buffer passed to
syslog_default_write()is NOT NULL-terminated.Printing depends on the value of
buflen.On the other hand,
up_puts()needs the string to be NULL-terminated.As a result, syslog over-runs the buffer and prints garbage.
The offending commit is specifically 8254ad9.
