This code is buggy. It's a mixup between ret and len. Get rid of "ret"
and use "len" throughout.
Unlike userspace snprintf() the kernel version always returns a positive
value. It returns the number of bytes that would have been copied if
there were enough space. This code should probably be changed to use
scnprintf() which returns the number of bytes which were copied
successfully.
The remove all the strlen() calls. It should just be += the return.
len += scnprintf(str + len, size - len, "Transfer Not Ready [%d] %s",
event->parameters,
status & DEPEVT_STATUS_TRANSFER_ACTIVE ?
"(Active)" : "(Not Active)");
