Subject: [PATCH v2] tracing: Add size check when printing trace_marker
 output

From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@...dmis.org>

If for some reason the trace_marker write does not have a nul byte for the
string, it will overflow the print:

  trace_seq_printf(s, ": %s", field->buf);

The field->buf could be missing the nul byte. To prevent overflow, add the
max size that the buf can be by using the event size and the field
location.

  int max = iter->ent_size - offsetof(struct print_entry, buf);

  trace_seq_printf(s, ": %*.s", max, field->buf);

Changes since v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20231212084444.4619b8ce@gandalf.local.home

- Use "%.*s" and not "%*s" otherwise it right aligns the output.

[ Masami, I kept your review by. ]
