Subject: [PATCH] edd: Use scnprintf() for avoiding potential buffer overflow

Since snprintf() returns the would-be-output size instead of the
actual output size, the succeeding calls may go beyond the given
buffer limit.  Fix it by replacing with scnprintf().

Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

This driver looks like an orphan.  If no one takes it, I'm willing to
merge the patch through my tree.
