The check at the function entry i.e. "if (SmbiosStringAreaSize <
StringTableGetStringSetSize (StrTable)) {"
should cover this, as BytesRemaining is derived from SmbiosStringAreaSize.
So as long as StringTableGetStringSetSize() returns the correct size, the
additional check before writing
the last NULL char is not needed.
Please let me know if you think otherwise.
