[PATCH] clean up missing overflow check in get_blkdev_list

[Neil Horman <nhorman@redhat.com>]

Patch to clean up missing overflow check in get_blkdev_list.  the printf which
adds the "Block Devices" string in /proc/devices can overflow the presented page
if get_chrdev_list eats up the entire 4k space. Tested by myself, with good
results.
