drivers/md/md: Use bounded strings ops when setting disk->disk_name
This commit replaces unbounded strcpy() and sprintf() with bounded strscpy()
and snprintf() operations when setting the disk_name in md_alloc() to improve
safety.

[Severity: Low]
This isn't a bug, but there is an inconsistent coding style for the sizeof
operator here in md_alloc(). The adjacent branch uses sizeof(disk->disk_name)
without a space, while this newly added branch includes a space. The kernel
coding style prefers no space after sizeof.
