printk: fix buffer overflow potential for print_text()
Before the commit 896fbe20 ("printk: use the lockless ringbuffer"), msg_print_text() would only write up to size-1 bytes into the provided buffer. Some callers expect this behavior and append a terminator to returned string. In particular: arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c:dump_log_buf() arch/um/kernel/kmsg_dump.c:kmsg_dumper_stdout() msg_print_text() has been replaced by record_print_text(), which currently fills the full size of the buffer. This causes a buffer overflow for the above callers. Change record_print_text() so that it will only use size-1 bytes for text data. Also, for paranoia sakes, add a terminator after the text data. And finally, document this behavior so that it is clear that only size-1 bytes are used and a terminator is added.
