module: fix the module name length in param_sysfs_builtin
the original code use KOBJ_NAME_LEN for built-in module name length, that's defined to 20 in linux/kobject.h, but this is not enough appearntly, many module names are longer than this; #define KOBJ_NAME_LEN 20 another macro is MODULE_NAME_LEN defined in linux/module.h, I think this is enough for module names: #define MODULE_NAME_LEN (64 - sizeof(unsigned long)) Signed-off-by: Denis Cheng <crquan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
