[PATCH] x86_64: Display meaningful part of filename during BUG()
When building in a separate objtree, file names produced by BUG() & Co. can
get fairly long; printing only the first 50 characters may thus result in
(almost) no useful information. The following change makes it so that rather
the last 50 characters of the filename get printed.
