dm-verity: increase sprintf buffer size

commit 88dd117c92 upstream.

The prefix "DM_VERITY_ERR_BLOCK_NR" is 22 chars. Add '=', one digit for
type, ',', up to 20 digits for a u64 block number, and a NUL terminator:
that's 46 bytes. The buffer is 42 bytes. For block numbers >= 16 decimal
digits (devices larger than ~16 EB with 4K blocks), snprintf silently
truncates the uevent environment variable.
