  mlabel: renaming USB stick appends "nA" to name

Bug description:
  I try to rename a usb stick using mlabel (gparted shows the same
  erroneous behaviour). The rename works, but the string "nA" is
  appended to the name (it is less than 11 characters). The appended
  string is right-justified, and spaces are inserted in the middle
  between my name and the "nA", resulting in a new label like "new-name
  nA". This behaviour only takes place with names that are at least 8
  characters long.
