[PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs: fix copy of overlapping memory

From: Colin King
Date: Sun Jan 26 2020 - 17:06:05 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently the rtw_sprintf prints the contents of thread_name
onto thread_name and this can lead to a potential copy of a
string over itself. Avoid this by printing the literal string RTWHALXT
instread of the contents of thread_name.

Addresses-Coverity: ("copy of overlapping memory")
Fixes: 554c0a3abf21 ("staging: Add rtl8723bs sdio wifi driver")
