[for-next][PATCH 2/5] tracing: Rebuild full_name on each hist_field_name() call

[Steven Rostedt <rostedt@kernel.org>]

From: Pengpeng Hou <pengpeng@iscas.ac.cn>

hist_field_name() uses a static MAX_FILTER_STR_VAL buffer for fully
qualified variable-reference names, but it currently appends into that
buffer with strcat() without rebuilding it first. As a result, repeated
calls append a new "system.event.field" name onto the previous one,
which can eventually run past the end of full_name.

Build the name with snprintf() on each call and return NULL if the fully
qualified name does not fit in MAX_FILTER_STR_VAL.
