[PATCH] sysfs: Add sysfs_emit to replace sprintf to PAGE_SIZE buffers.

From: Joe Perches
Date: Fri Aug 28 2020 - 18:52:22 EST


sprintf does not know the PAGE_SIZE maximum of the temporary buffer
used for outputting sysfs content requests and it's possible to
overrun the buffer length.

Add a generic sysfs_emit mechanism that knows that the size of the
temporary buffer and ensures that no overrun is done.
