Subject: [PATCH] writeback: tracing: Copy only up to 31 characters in strncpy() calls

In the past an attempt was made to remove a set of warnings triggered by
gcc 8.x and W=1 by changing calls to strncpy() into strlcpy(). This was
rejected as one of the desired behavior is to keep initializing the rest
of the destination string whenever the source string is less than the
size.

However the code makes it clear that this is not a desired behavior to
copy the entire 32 characters into the destination buffer, since it is
expected that the string is NUL terminated. So change the maximum number
of characters to be copied to be the size of the destination buffer
minus 1.

Break long lines and make this patch go through `checkpatch --strict` with
no errors.

This commit removes the following warnings:

  include/trace/events/writeback.h:69:3: warning: 'strncpy' specified bound 32 equals destination size [-Wstringop-truncation]
  include/trace/events/writeback.h:99:3: warning: 'strncpy' specified bound 32 equals destination size [-Wstringop-truncation]
