So when you're reviewing these to look for read overflows, a string
literal isn't going to overflow. So that makes the last two obvious.
But for the first one you have to review the caller qlge_gen_reg_dump()
and the last parameter passed to qlge_build_coredump_seg_header() is
always a string literal so that's obvious too.

It's not really that much work to check for this.
