In 34c87901e113 "Shrink stack space usage in cifs_construct_tcon" we
change the size of the username name buffer from MAX_USERNAME_SIZE
(256) to 28.  This call to snprintf() needs to be updated as well.

I know that everyone is going to complain about using a literal but
it's local to this function and it's commented in the lines above.
I'm not opposed to using a define, I suppose, if you give me a good
one, but really I'd just as soon leave it as is.  *eye roll in
advance*.
