snprintf() may not always return the correct size of used bytes but instead the length the resulting string would be if it would fit into the buffer. So scnprintf() is the function to use when the real length of the resulting string is needed. Replace all occurrences of snprintf() with scnprintf() where the return code is further processed. Also find and fix some occurrences where sprintf() was used.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
