[PATCH linux-next] sparc/vio: use sysfs_emit() instead of scnprintf().
Posted by xie.ludan@zte.com.cn 9 months ago

Follow the advice in Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.rst:
show() should only use sysfs_emit() or sysfs_emit_at() when formatting
the value to be returned to user space.

Do you have this hardware and have tested it?  If not, I wouldn't mess
with existing code, just follow the documentation for new submissions,
leave old stuff alone as it's already working.
