The patch titled
     Subject: kernel/sysctl_binary.c: use scnprintf() instead of snprintf()
has been added to the -mm tree.  Its filename is
     kernel-sysctl_binaryc-use-scnprintf-instead-of-snprintf.patch

This patch should soon appear at
    http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/kernel-sysctl_binaryc-use-scnprintf-instead-of-snprintf.patch
and later at
    http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/kernel-sysctl_binaryc-use-scnprintf-instead-of-snprintf.patch

Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
   a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
   b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
   c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
      reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's

*** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code ***

The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated
there every 3-4 working days

Subject: kernel/sysctl_binary.c: use scnprintf() instead of snprintf()

snprintf() will return the 'ideal' length which may be larger than real
buffer length, if we only want to use real length, need use scnprintf()
instead of.
