Nope. We can read multiple entries in one go.
bytes_read += snprintf()
so it's mostly good. The only case where it fails if we don't have
enough space for the snprintf(), as snprintf() will then return the
number of bytes it would have written. That can actually happen on
account of the hex vs. decimal mess with the frame counter.
