Coccinelle reports a warning:
WARNING: use scnprintf or sprintf
This LWN article explains the rationale for this change:
https: //lwn.net/Articles/69419/
Ie. snprintf() returns what *would* be the resulting length,
while scnprintf() returns the actual length.
Adding to that, there has also been some slow migration from snprintf to scnprintf,
here's the shift in usage in the past 3.5 years, in all fs/ files:
v5.0 v6.0-rc6
--------------------------------------
snprintf() uses: 63 213
scnprintf() uses: 374 186
No intended change in behavior.
[ mingo: Improved the changelog & reviewed the usage sites. ]

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.
