Subject: mm/page_owner: use scnprintf() to avoid excessive buffer overrun check

The snprintf() function can return a length greater than the given input
size.  That will require a check for buffer overrun after each invocation
of snprintf().  scnprintf(), on the other hand, will never return a
greater length.  By using scnprintf() in selected places, we can avoid
some buffer overrun checks except after stack_depot_snprint() and after
the last snprintf().
