commit64276a9939upstream. Rather than hard coding various lengths, we can use the right constants. Strings should be `char *` while buffers should be `u8 *`. Rather than have a nonsensical and unused maxlength, just remove it. Finally, use snprintf instead of sprintf, just out of good hygiene. As well, remove the old comment about returning a binary UUID via the binary sysctl syscall. That syscall was removed from the kernel in 5.5, and actually, the "uuid_strategy" function and related infrastructure for even serving it via the binary sysctl syscall was removed with894d249115("sysctl drivers: Remove dead binary sysctl support") back in 2.6.33.

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.
