printk: ringbuffer: Fix truncating buffer size min_t cast

commit 53e9e33ede37a247d926db5e4a9e56b55204e66c upstream.

If an output buffer size exceeded U16_MAX, the min_t(u16, ...) cast in
copy_data() was causing writes to truncate. This manifested as output
bytes being skipped, seen as %NUL bytes in pstore dumps when the available
record size was larger than 65536. Fix the cast to no longer truncate
the calculation.
