From: Ryota Ozaki <ozaki.ryota@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: fix off-by-one bug in print_nodes_state()
/sys/devices/system/node/{online,possible} outputs a garbage byte because
print_nodes_state() returns content size + 1. To fix the bug, the patch
changes the use of cpuset_sprintf_cpulist to follow the use at other
places, which is clearer and safer.
This bug was introduced since v2.6.24 (bde631a51876f23e9).
