Since snprintf() has the documented, but still rather strange trait of
returning the length of the data that *would have been* written to the
array if space were available, rather than the arguably more useful
length of data *actually* written, it is usually considered wise to use
something else instead in order to avoid confusion.
In the case of sysfs call-backs, new wrappers exist that do just that.
This patch replaces just one use of snprintf() found in the sysfs
.show() call-back with the new sysfs_emit() helper.
