The 20 byte length of struct platform_device_id::name is not long enough
for many devices (especially regulators), where the string initialization
is getting truncated and missing the trailing NUL byte. This is seen
with GCC 15's -Wunterminated-string-initialization option:

Increase the length to 24, slightly more than is currently being used by
the affected drivers. The string is used in '%s' format strings and via
the module code, which appears to do its own length encoding. This size
was chosen because there was already a 4 byte hole in the structure:

struct platform_device_id {
        char                       name[20];             /*     0    20 */

        /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

        kernel_ulong_t             driver_data;          /*    24     8 */

        /* size: 32, cachelines: 1, members: 2 */
        /* sum members: 28, holes: 1, sum holes: 4 */
        /* last cacheline: 32 bytes */
};
