Subject: s390/disassembler: increase show_code buffer size

From: Vasily Gorbik <[email protected]>

commit b192571d1ae375e0bbe0aa3ccfa1a3c3704454b9 upstream.

Current buffer size of 64 is too small. objdump shows that there are instructions which would require up to 75 bytes buffer (with current formating). 128 bytes "ought to be enough for anybody".

Also replaces 8 spaces with a single tab to reduce the memory footprint.

Fixes the following KASAN finding:
