The change looks fine, but the 1 larger information is useful and
should be kept.  Maybe move it up to where the label variable s
defined?

If we're using scnprintf we should probably also check that it doesn't
get truncated while we're at it.

Also please split the label and ioctl and the xatte changes as they
aren't related at all.
