a trivial patch that replaces all use of snprintf with scnprintf. scnprintf() is generally seen as a safer function to use than snprintf for many use cases. In our case, there is no actual difference between the two since we never look at the return value. Thus we did not have any of the bugs that scnprintf protects against and the patch does nothing. However, for people reading our code it will be a receipt that we have done our due dilligence and checked our code for this type of bugs.

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.
