[S390] early: Fix possible overlapping data buffer
This patch fixed bugzilla #12965: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12965 The original code contains some inproper use of sprintf function where a buffer is used both as input string as well as output string. It should remember the written bytes in the previous and use that as the offset for later writing. Also replace sprintf with snprintf.
