Subject: [PATCH] kallsyms: work around bogus -Wrestrict warning

gcc -O3 produces some really odd warnings for this file:

kernel/kallsyms.c: In function 'sprint_symbol':
kernel/kallsyms.c:369:3: error: 'strcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]
   strcpy(buffer, name);
   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
kernel/kallsyms.c: In function 'sprint_symbol_no_offset':
kernel/kallsyms.c:369:3: error: 'strcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]
   strcpy(buffer, name);
   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
kernel/kallsyms.c: In function 'sprint_backtrace':
kernel/kallsyms.c:369:3: error: 'strcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]
   strcpy(buffer, name);
   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This obviously cannot be since it is preceded by an 'if (name != buffer)'
check.

Using sprintf() instead of strcpy() is a bit wasteful but is
the best workaround I could come up with.

Fixes: mmtom ("init/Kconfig: enable -O3 for all arches")
