[PATCH] mm: memcontrol: Fix out-of-bounds on the buf returned by memory_stat_format

From: Muchun Song
Date: Sat Sep 12 2020 - 11:51:40 EST


The memory_stat_format() returns a format string, but the return buf
may not including the trailing '\0'. So the users may read the buf
out of bounds.

Fixes: c8713d0b2312 ("mm: memcontrol: dump memory.stat during cgroup OOM")
