[alsa-devel] [PATCH v2 4/7] ALSA: opti9xx: fix format string overflow warning

We pass a long name from "codec->pcm->name" into the longname
string of the same length:

sound/isa/opti9xx/miro.c: In function 'snd_miro_probe':
sound/isa/opti9xx/miro.c:1356:39: error: '%s' directive writing up to 79 bytes into a region of size between 35 and 72 [-Werror=format-overflow=]
  sprintf(card->longname, "%s: OPTi%s, %s at 0x%lx, irq %d, dma %d&%d",
                                       ^~
sound/isa/opti9xx/miro.c:1356:26: note: using the range [0, 4294967295] for directive argument
  sprintf(card->longname, "%s: OPTi%s, %s at 0x%lx, irq %d, dma %d&%d",
                          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
sound/isa/opti9xx/miro.c:1356:2: note: 'sprintf' output between 32 and 185 bytes into a destination of size 80
  sprintf(card->longname, "%s: OPTi%s, %s at 0x%lx, irq %d, dma %d&%d",

There is no easy way to avoid the theoretical overflow in this case,
but using snprintf() will turn it into a harmless truncation.
