kdb: Fix overlap in buffers with strcpy

Maxime reported that strcpy(s->usage, s->usage+1) has no definitive
guarantee that it will work on all archs the same way when you have
overlapping memory.  The fix is simple for the kdb code because we
still have the original string memory in the function scope, so we
just have to use that as the argument instead.
