Replace all sprintf() calls with sysfs_emit() in sysfs show functions.
sysfs_emit() is preferred over sprintf() for formatting sysfs output
as it provides better bounds checking and prevents potential buffer
overflows.
Also, replace sprintf() with sysfs_emit() in show_constraint_name()
and simplify the code by removing the redundant strlen() call since
sysfs_emit() returns the length.
