[PATCH 21/25] dynamic_debug: shrink struct pending query to size actually needed

From: Jim Cromie
Date: Mon Jul 25 2011 - 17:45:12 EST


Remove struct pending_query's fixed sized char arrays; function,
filename, module, format, and replace them with a 0-sized charbuf.
Before the struct is allocd, determine the size needed to store
the 4 strings into the charbuf. Then copy the strings off the stack,
and update the field ptrs in the embedded struct ddebug_query to point
into the charbuf. This change uses strcpy instead of strlcpy, since
we know that the charbuf is big enough to hold the 4 strings.
