printk: fix possible reuse of va_list variable
commit 988a35f8da1dec5a8cd2788054d1e717be61bf25 upstream. I noticed that there is a possibility that printk_safe_log_store() causes kernel oops because "args" parameter is passed to vsnprintf() again when atomic_cmpxchg() detected that we raced. Fix this by using va_copy().
