kasprintf() calls vsnprintf() twice, once to compute the length and
once to output the string. But you already precomputed the length
during init in policybrief_len. So kmalloc() + snprintf() should
suffice. You can also then check that snprintf() returns the expected
value.

Is there a particular reason to not just return policybrief_len here as
well, for consistency in the interface? How do you intend to use this
value in the caller?
