Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo b3c60e4f96 tools lib api: Fix mount_overload() snprintf truncation and toupper range
[ Upstream commit fd1f70776a ]

mount_overload() builds an environment variable name like
"PERF_SYSFS_ENVIRONMENT" from fs->name.  Two bugs:

1) snprintf() uses name_len as the buffer size instead of sizeof(upper_name).
   For fs->name = "sysfs" (len=5), the output is truncated to "PERF" (4
   chars + null), so getenv() never finds the intended variable.

2) mem_toupper() only uppercases name_len bytes, converting just the "PERF"
   prefix rather than the full string including the filesystem name portion.

Fix by using sizeof(upper_name) for snprintf and strlen(upper_name) for
mem_toupper, so the full "PERF_SYSFS_ENVIRONMENT" string is correctly
formatted and uppercased.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
