tracing: Fix fixed array of synthetic event

The commit 4d38328eb4 ("tracing: Fix synth event printk format for str
fields") replaced "%.*s" with "%s" but missed removing the number size of
the dynamic and static strings. The commit e1a453a57b ("tracing: Do not
add length to print format in synthetic events") fixed the dynamic part
but did not fix the static part. That is, with the commands:

  # echo 's:wake_lat char[] wakee; u64 delta;' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events
  # echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts=common_timestamp.usecs if !(common_flags & 0x18)' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
  # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(wake_lat,next_comm,$delta)' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger

That caused the output of:

          <idle>-0       [001] d..5.   193.428167: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)sshd-sessiondelta=155
    sshd-session-879     [001] d..5.   193.811080: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)kworker/u34:5delta=58
          <idle>-0       [002] d..5.   193.811198: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)bashdelta=91

The commit e1a453a57b fixed the part where the synthetic event had
"char[] wakee". But if one were to replace that with a static size string:

  # echo 's:wake_lat char[16] wakee; u64 delta;' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events

Where "wakee" is defined as "char[16]" and not "char[]" making it a static
size, the code triggered the "(efaul)" again.

Remove the added STR_VAR_LEN_MAX size as the string is still going to be
nul terminated.
