    platform/x86: dell-smbios: fix string overflow · 54d11736
    Arnd Bergmann authored
    The new sysfs code overwrites two fixed-length character arrays
    that are each one byte shorter than they need to be, to hold
    the trailing \0:
    
    drivers/platform/x86/dell-smbios.c: In function 'build_tokens_sysfs':
    drivers/platform/x86/dell-smbios.c:494:42: error: 'sprintf' writing a terminating nul past the end of the destination [-Werror=format-overflow=]
       sprintf(buffer_location, "%04x_location",
    drivers/platform/x86/dell-smbios.c:494:3: note: 'sprintf' output 14 bytes into a destination of size 13
    drivers/platform/x86/dell-smbios.c:506:36: error: 'sprintf' writing a terminating nul past the end of the destination [-Werror=format-overflow=]
       sprintf(buffer_value, "%04x_value",
    drivers/platform/x86/dell-smbios.c:506:3: note: 'sprintf' output 11 bytes into a destination of size 10
    
    This changes it to just use kasprintf(), which always gets it right.
    
    Discovered with gcc-7.1.1 with the following commit reverted:
    bd664f6b disable new gcc-7.1.1 warnings for now
