strcpy() is deprecated; use strscpy() instead. Use strscpy() to copy the long name because there's no string to format with sprintf(). In the else clause we cannot use strscpy due to padding of trace_method_name with '\', hence we can use other kernel safe string functions such as scnprintf. I'm not sure with the scnprintf, I would like some commet/s on that, hence the RFC. No functional changes intended.
