From: Bart Van Assche bart.vanassche@wdc.com Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2018 14:10:37 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] scsi: qedi: Fix a potential buffer overflow
Tell snprintf() to store at most 255 characters in the output buffer instead of 256. This patch avoids that smatch reports the following warning:
drivers/scsi/qedi/qedi_main.c:891: qedi_get_boot_tgt_info() error: snprintf() is printing too much 256 vs 255
