In this sprintf():

	sprintf(namestr, "%s %s Volume", name, dirstr[dir]);

Then "namestr" and "name" buffer are both SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ID_NAME_MAXLEN
(44) characters long.  We never actually use that full amount in real
life so everything works fine, but static checkers complain that if name
is 44 characters then when you combine that with the other strings it
will lead to a buffer overflow.  Using snprintf() silences the warning
and makes the code a little bit safer for the future.

Thanks for the patch, but the very same fix was already submitted from
Lucy and merged in commit a409c60111e6.
