[PATCH] rhashtable: avoid -Wrestrict warning on overlapping sprintf output

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Tue Mar 23 2021 - 09:04:46 EST


From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

sprintf() is declared with a restrict keyword to not allow input and
output to point to the same buffer:

lib/test_rhashtable.c: In function 'print_ht':
lib/test_rhashtable.c:504:4: error: 'sprintf' argument 3 overlaps destination object 'buff' [-Werror=restrict]
504 | sprintf(buff, "%s\nbucket[%d] -> ", buff, i);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
lib/test_rhashtable.c:489:7: note: destination object referenced by 'restrict'-qualified argument 1 was declared here
489 | char buff[512] = "";
| ^~~~

Rework this function to remember the last offset instead to
avoid the warning.
