tipc: avoid possible string overflow
gcc points out that the combined length of the fixed-length inputs to
l->name is larger than the destination buffer size:
net/tipc/link.c: In function 'tipc_link_create':
net/tipc/link.c:465:26: error: '%s' directive writing up to 32 bytes
into a region of size between 26 and 58 [-Werror=format-overflow=]
sprintf(l->name, "%s:%s-%s:unknown", self_str, if_name, peer_str);
net/tipc/link.c:465:2: note: 'sprintf' output 11 or more bytes
(assuming 75) into a destination of size 60
sprintf(l->name, "%s:%s-%s:unknown", self_str, if_name, peer_str);
A detailed analysis reveals that the theoretical maximum length of
a link name is:
max self_str + 1 + max if_name + 1 + max peer_str + 1 + max if_name =
16 + 1 + 15 + 1 + 16 + 1 + 15 = 65
Since we also need space for a trailing zero we now set MAX_LINK_NAME
to 68.
Just to be on the safe side we also replace the sprintf() call with
snprintf().

hash values")
