[ Upstream commit 8cc27f5c6dd17dd090f3a696683f04336c162ff5 ]

The debugfs_create_str() API assumes that the string pointer is either NULL
or points to valid kmalloc() memory. Leaving the pointer uninitialized can
cause problems.

Initialize src_node and dst_node to empty strings before creating the
debugfs entries to guarantee that reads and writes are safe.
