Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] EDAC: Fix sysfs dimm_label show operation

After 'commit 7d375bffa524 ("sb_edac: Fix support for systems with
two home agents per socket")', sysfs "dimm_label" and "chX_dimm_label"
show their label string without a newline "\n" at the end.

 [root@...nge ~]# cat /sys/bus/mc0/devices/dimm0/dimm_label
 CPU_SrcID#0_Ha#0_Chan#0_DIMM#0[root@...nge ~]#

 [root@...nge ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/csrow0/ch0_dimm_label
 CPU_SrcID#0_Ha#0_Chan#0_DIMM#0[root@...nge ~]#

The label strings now have 31 characters, which are the same as
EDAC_MC_LABEL_LEN.  Since the snprintf()s in channel_dimm_label_show()
and dimmdev_label_show() limit the whole length by EDAC_MC_LABEL_LEN,
the newline in the format "%s\n" is ignored.

 [root@...nge ~]# od -bc /sys/bus/mc0/devices/dimm0/dimm_label
 0000000 103 120 125 137 123 162 143 111 104 043 060 137 110 141 043 060
           C   P   U   _   S   r   c   I   D   #   0   _   H   a   #   0
 0000020 137 103 150 141 156 043 060 137 104 111 115 115 043 060 000
           _   C   h   a   n   #   0   _   D   I   M   M   #   0  \0
 0000037

Fix it by using 'sizeof(dimm->label) + 1' as the whole length in
the snprintf()s in channel_dimm_label_show() and dimmdev_label_show().
