Subject: [PATCH] x86: traps_32.c - use KSYM_NAME_LEN instead of numeric
	value

It's safer to use KSYM_NAME_LEN instead of numeric constant
because we could get buffer overrun someday if KSYM_NAME_LEN
would be changed to a bigger value.

I've patched 64bit version but forgot about 32bit. So
lets fix it too.
