There is nothing wrong with the static analysis. The first scnprintf format
type is perfectly valid as far as its size is greater than the size of the
data pointed by the *field pointer, which is a one byte size in our case.
The static analysis warned about the second scnprintf case, where the format
type was shorter than the integer returned by the __builtin_constant_p.
This warning can be considered as a false positive since the le16_to_cpu is
all about the 16 bits numbers, but to silence it, I submitted the above fix.

The sysfs_emit was introduced in the 5.10 kernel:
2efc459d06f16 (Joe Perches 2020-09-16 13:40:38 -0700 335) int sysfs_emit(...)
But, the hid-ft260 driver will be used mostly with older kernels, at least,
for the next couple of years. Since older kernel versions do not have this API,
it will require patching the driver or kernel that I would like to avoid.
Nevertheless, we can reconsider the sysfs_emit usage in this driver in the
future, upon wider 5.10+ kernels' adoption.
