Consolidate buffer length checking with new-line/end-of-line checking. Additionally, instead of reading user memory twice, just do the assignment during the loop. This change doesn't affect the potential races here. It was already possible to read a sysctl that was in the middle of a write. In both cases, the string will always be NULL terminated. The pre-existing race remains a problem to be solved.
