[ Upstream commit 48cf49d31994ff97b33c4044e618560ec84d35fb ]
snprintf() does not return negative values on error.
To know if the buffer was too small, the returned value needs to be
compared with the length of the passed buffer. If it is greater or
equal, the output has been truncated, so add checks for the truncation
to create_pnp_modalias() and create_of_modalias(). Also make them
return -ENOMEM in that case, as they already do that elsewhere.
Moreover, the remaining size of the buffer used by snprintf() needs to
be updated after the first write to avoid out-of-bounds access as
already done correctly in create_pnp_modalias(), but not in
create_of_modalias(), so change the latter accordingly.

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.
