Subject: [PATCH] drm: fix off-by-one in logger

The current implementation will leak a byte to the log via memmove. The
specified 27 bytes are off-by-one, as the payload is 25 bytes, and the
termination character is only one byte large. To avoid this, factor out
the error message, and furthermore make the second parameter of the
append_entry function const.

Fixes: 4562236b3bc0 ("drm/amd/dc: Add dc display driver (v2)")

The full trace is as follows:

In function ‘memmove’,
   from ‘append_entry’ at
        drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/basics/logger.c:257:2,
   from ‘dm_logger_append_va’ at
        drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/basics/logger.c:348:4
   detected read beyond size of object passed as 2nd parameter
