As of now sprint_* APIs don't pass buffer size as an argument
and use sprintf directly.

To replace dangerous sprintf API to scnprintf,
buffer size is required in arguments.

Instead of hardcoding KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN everywhere, will it better to hide 
it like this:

         extern int __sprint_symbol(char *buffer, size_t size, unsigned 
long address);
         #define sprint_symbol(buf, addr)        __sprint_symbol(buf, 
sizeof(buf), addr)

Or you can use sizeof(buf) directly instead of KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN.
