From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
Subject: IB/mlx4: fix sprintf format warning
gcc-7 points out that a negative port_num value would overflow
the string buffer:
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/sysfs.c: In function 'mlx4_ib_device_register_sysfs':
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/sysfs.c:251:16: error: 'sprintf' may write a terminating nul past the end of the destination [-Werror=format-overflow=]
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/sysfs.c:251:2: note: 'sprintf' output between 2 and 11 bytes into a destination of size 10
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/sysfs.c:303:17: error: 'sprintf' may write a terminating nul past the end of the destination [-Werror=format-overflow=]
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/sysfs.c:303:3: note: 'sprintf' output between 2 and 11 bytes into a destination of size 10
While we should be able to assume that port_num is positive here,
making the buffer one byte longer has no downsides and avoids the
warning.
