[PATCH v2 2/2] scsi: bfa: Use snprintf() in bfa_fcs_fabric_psymb_init()

From: Mariia Nikitash

Date: Mon Sep 28 2026 - 05:02:02 EST


From: Bill Wendling <morbo@xxxxxxxxxx>

Similar to bfa_fcs_fabric_nsymb_init(), bfa_fcs_fabric_psymb_init()
builds the port symbolic name using strscpy() and a chain of seven or
eight strlcat() calls.

In preparation for removing the deprecated strlcat() API[1], replace the
chained strscpy() and strlcat() calls with a single snprintf() call.

An empty host_os_patch naturally contributes no characters through %s,
allowing both cases to be handled by the same snprintf() call. Since
snprintf() also NUL-terminates the destination, the explicit final NUL
assignment can be dropped.
