Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: zero fill vma name buffer

In capture_vma() Coverity complains of a possible buffer overrun. Even
though this is a static function where all call sites can be checked,
limiting the copy length could save some future grief.

CID 93300 (#1 of 1): Copy into fixed size buffer (STRING_OVERFLOW)
4. fixed_size_dest: You might overrun the 16-character fixed-size string c->name
   by copying name without checking the length.
5. parameter_as_source: Note: This defect has an elevated risk because the
   source argument is a parameter of the current function.
1326        strcpy(c->name, name);

Fix any possible overflows by using strncpy(). Zero fill the name buffer to
guarantee ASCII string NULL termination.
