[PATCH] hwmon: (occ) Mark occ_init_attribute() as __printf

From: Arnd Bergmann

Date: Tue Feb 03 2026 - 11:44:22 EST


From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

This is a printf-style function, which gcc -Werror=suggest-attribute=format
correctly points out:

drivers/hwmon/occ/common.c: In function 'occ_init_attribute':
drivers/hwmon/occ/common.c:761:9: error: function 'occ_init_attribute' might be a candidate for 'gnu_printf' format attribute [-Werror=suggest-attribute=format]

Add the attribute to avoid this warning and ensure any incorrect
format strings are detected here.

Fixes: 744c2fe950e9 ("hwmon: (occ) Rework attribute registration for stack usage")
