Subject: [PATCH 1/1] platform/x86/intel/tpmi/plr: Make char[] longer to silence warning

W=1 build triggers this warning:

drivers/platform/x86/intel/plr_tpmi.c:315:55: error: ‘snprintf’ output
may be truncated before the last format character
[-Werror=format-truncation=]
  315 |                 snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "domain%d", i);
      |                                                       ^
drivers/platform/x86/intel/plr_tpmi.c:315:17: note: ‘snprintf’ output
between 8 and 17 bytes into a destination of size 16
  315 |                 snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "domain%d", i);

Inspecting the code tells that maximum i in intel_plr_probe() will fit
into u8 because it comes from:

struct intel_tpmi_pfs_entry {
	...
        u64 num_entries:8;

...but compiler does not know that. Saving one byte in name[] at the
expense of a warning with W=1 seems a bad trade so simply make it
name[17].
