Douglas Raillard e9564aa7b8 tracing: Fix synth event printk format for str fields
commit 4d38328eb442dc06aec4350fd9594ffa6488af02 upstream.

The printk format for synth event uses "%.*s" to print string fields,
but then only passes the pointer part as var arg.

Replace %.*s with %s as the C string is guaranteed to be null-terminated.

The output in print fmt should never have been updated as __get_str()
handles the string limit because it can access the length of the string in
the string meta data that is saved in the ring buffer.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
