Felix Fietkau edc8daeffe kernel: crashlog: Avoid out-of-bounds write
vsnprintf returns the number of chars that would have been written, not
the actual number of chars written. This can lead to crashlog_buf->len
being too big which in turn can lead to get_maxlen() returning negative
numbers. The length argument of kmsg_dump_get_buffer will be casted to
a size_t which makes a negative input a big positive number allowing
kmsg_dump_get_buffer to write out of bounds.

Fix this by using vscnprintf which returns the actually written number
of chars.

Florian Fainelli 141f8f453d [kernel] do not build crashlog on sparc too
This is crashing the kernel in crashlog_init_fs(), until fixed, disable it
for SPARC too.

Gabor Juhos 7a14817d2d generic: fix crashlog patch for 3.6
kmsg_dump() uses an iterator to receive log buffer
content since 3.5. Change the 'crashlog_do_dump'
function in order to make it compatible with the
new version.
