4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dominik Brodowski <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit d8e92de8ef952bed88c56c7a44c02d8dcae0984e upstream. Replace a couple of magically connected buffer length literal constants with a common definition that makes their relationship obvious. Also document why our sscanf() usage is safe. No intended functional changes.
