[PATCH] arch: blackfin: kernel: memory overflow, 'namebuf' lengthneed be more than 256

From: Chen Gang

The 'name' length in decode_address() may be 255, after call d_path()
successfully.

So for decode_address(), the input 'buf' need be more than 256, or may
memory overflow.

For simply thinking of, use 'namebuf[512]' instead of 'namebuf[150]'
which will pass to decode_address() as input 'buf'.

Also better use macro instead of hard code number when processing
symbols work.
