Replace sprintf() with sysfs_emit() in the protocol_id_show() sysfs
attribute function. This code is safe as-is, but replace
sprintf() with sysfs_emit() because we are trying to get rid of calls
to sprintf() as part of kernel hardening; sysfs_emit() is more
appropriate in this context.

This was compile-tested only (no VM/hardware used)
Changes in v2:
- Subject: change to imperative "Replace" (was "Replaced").
- Wording and line breaks adjusted in the commit body for clarity.
Changes in v3:
- Clarify what "safe" means (buffer is PAGE_SIZE) per Dan Carpenter's
suggestion.
- Reflow lines to avoid awkward breaks.

This series fixes checkpatch.pl checks highlighted for files
in greybus, for mutex declaration comments, and styling issues.
Changes in v3:
- Added cover letter detailing changes made in subsequent versions of
patch-sets.
- v2 patch-set was only emailed to maintainers. The email was forwarded
to the lists, but this rendered the patch-set corrupted. v3 hopes to
correct this.
Changes in v2:
- Split patch 1 into two individual patches 1/4 and 2/4 to keep logical
changes separate.
Rachit Dhar (4):
staging: greybus: added comment to mutex declaration in
fw-management.c
staging: greybus: fixed styling issue in fw-management.c
staging: greybus: resolved checkpatch checks for raw.c
staging: greybus: resolved checkpatch checks for light.c

Replaced sprintf() with sysfs_emit() in the protocol_id_show() sysfs
attribute function. This code is safe, as replacing sprintf() with
sysfs_emit() gets rid of calls to sprintf()
as part of kernel hardening and sysfs_emit() is more appropriate in
this context.
