[Spice-devel] [PATCH] covscan: add comment on false-positive on g_memdup()

From: Victor Toso <me at victortoso.com>

Previous commit set last element of orig_argv array to NULL.
That's redundant as g_memdup() uses memcpy() and it would do
just that. Add a comment that the reason for this change is
to workaround clang's warning.

Suggested by Uri.
