[patch] mfd: snprintf() returns largish values

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



snprintf() returns the number of bytes which would have been written so
it can be larger than the size of the buffer.  In this case it's fine,
but people copy and paste this code so I've fixed it.
