Hmm. Not sure I understand why we do not need to check the space here.

Probably it makes sense to factor out this code?

Roughly, something like:

	struct core_name {
		char *corename;
		int len, free;
	};

	static bool cn_printf(struct core_name *cn, const char *fmt, ...)
	{
		char *cur;
		int need;
		va_list ap;

	retry:
		cur = cn->corename + (cn->len - cn->free);
		need = vsnprintf(cur, cn->free, fmt, ap);

		if (likely(need < free)) {
			free -= need;
			return true;
		}

		increase ->len, realloc ->corename or return false;
		goto retry;

	}


Then format_corename() can just do

	if (!cn_printf(&cn, ...))
		return -ENOMEM;

consistently.



Also. Not sure this really makes sense, but if we ever need to expand the
string, perhaps it makes sense to remeber this fact so that the next time
we start with len > CORENAME_MAX_SIZE. In any case, I think this needs a
separate patch.
