Doing snprintf(buf, len, "%s...", buf, ...) for appending to a buffer currently works, but it is somewhat fragile, and any other overlap between source and destination buffers would be a definite bug. This is an attempt at eliminating the relatively few occurences of this pattern in the kernel. I could use another set of eyes on all of these. The drm/amdkfd patch is unfortunately rather large, but I couldn't find a better way to do this.
