*sigh* Patrick, you accepted the BUS_ID_SIZE change without the original
patch, so now BUS_ID_SIZE is back to 16 bytes.

Linus, please apply this patch to get things right again.

This was causing me all sorts of problems with linux1394's 16-18 byte
long bus_id lengths. The sysfs names were all broken.

This not only makes KOBJ_NAME_LEN match BUS_ID_SIZE, but fixes the
strncpy's in drivers/base/ so that it can't happen again (atleast the
strings will be null terminated).
