rcuc info output in print_cpu_stall_info() contains
posiible buffer overflow in the case of huge jiffies
difference. The situation seems improbable, but, buffer
overflow, still. Also, unsigned jiffies difference printed
as (signed) %ld (which can be a bad format, if the values
are huge).
Change sprintf to snprintf and change %ld to %lu in format.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
