If a function name is greater than 63 char long, xmon command
may not find them. For example, here is a test that
executed an illegal instruction in a kernel function and one of
call stack function has name >63 char long,

and when executing a dump instruction (di) command for long function name,
xmon fails to find the function symbol

0:mon> di $check__allowed__function__name__for__symbol__r2_resolution_symbol
unknown symbol 'check__allowed__function__name__for__symbol__r2_resolution_symb'
0000000000000000  ********

This is because, in the scanhex(), tmpstr loop index is checked only for a upper bound
of 63. Proposed fix is to replace the upper bound value with "KSYM_NAME_LEN"

With fix:

0:mon> di $check__allowed__function__name__for__symbol__r2_resolution_symbol

Thanks for fixing this!

The "Link -" should be a tag, i.e. "Link:". And, in this case, since
it was a report, I think it should be a "Closes:" instead, and thus it
should be put below the "Reported-by:" and it should point to the
message of the original report, i.e.

    https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/CANiq72=QeTgtZL4k9=4CJP6C_Hv=rh3fsn3B9S3KFoPXkyWk3w@mail.gmail.com/

I am not sure if a "Fixes:" tag would apply here, though.

Cheers,
Miguel

Ok thats was fast :)
Thanks for the review,  Will fix it in v2 and also will check and add 
"Fixes" tag part.
