Subject: cpu: hotplug: Bound hotplug states sysfs output
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=86f436567f2516a0083b210bedc933544826a2c3;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

cpu: hotplug: Bound hotplug states sysfs output

states_show() adds CPU hotplug state names into a single sysfs buffer
using sprintf(). With enough registered states, this can write past the
end of the PAGE_SIZE buffer.

Use sysfs_emit_at() so output is bounded.
