kdb: Use format-specifiers rather than memset() for padding in kdb_read()
commit c9b51ddb66b1d96e4d364c088da0f1dfb004c574 upstream. Currently when the current line should be removed from the display kdb_read() uses memset() to fill a temporary buffer with spaces. The problem is not that this could be trivially implemented using a format string rather than open coding it. The real problem is that it is possible, on systems with a long kdb_prompt_str, to write past the end of the tmpbuffer. Happily, as mentioned above, this can be trivially implemented using a format string. Make it so! Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by:Douglas Anderson <dianders@chromium.org> Tested-by:
