The '8' ought to be ringing alarm bells as well. If you actually look at the code I think this should be sysfs_emit(). In any case it looks like someone changed a load of sprintf() to snprintf() with the expected max size of the output rather than using a bound for the output buffer. IIRC at least one of the length is just plain wrong and leads to valid output being truncated. Using (say) 256 for all the snprint() would have been more sensible.
