The trace event devlink_trap_report uses the __dynamic_array() macro to
determine the size of the input_dev_name field. This is because it needs
to test the dev field for NULL, and will use "NULL" if it is. But it also
has the size of the dynamic array as a fixed IFNAMSIZ bytes. This defeats
the purpose of the dynamic array, as this will reserve that amount of
bytes on the ring buffer, and to make matters worse, it will even save
that size in the event as the event expects it to be dynamic (for which it
is not).
Since IFNAMSIZ is just 16 bytes, just make it a static array and this will
remove the meta data from the event that records the size.

Changes since v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected]
- The old version tried to do the same logic in the __dynamic_array() to
calculate the size of the string, but actually failed to by not using
the correct variable. Just use __array() instead, as IFNAMSIZ is just
16 bytes anyway.
- Cc'd more maintainers by running get_maintainers.pl from the call of
the tracepoint and not just the include/trace/events file.
