Ah, many thanks for tackling this, I wondered about those code
duplications and missing error handling already.

So I tried some sed pattern on the "old" part of the patch, to get to
the new format and spot any differences apart from mechanically changing
"snprintf(buf, buf_len," to "arm_spe_pkt_snprintf(&buf, &blen,".
See below.

Very nice cleanup! If you can address this one '"%s", name' comment

Isn't it considered safer to use '..., "%s", name)', because that would
handle percent signs in "name" correctly?
Not really an issue in the current code, but good style, I believe.

So this was actually a bug before, right? Because "buf" does no longer
have buf_len bytes available at this point, it should have been blen
here already. Which gets fixed with all your changes!

Thanks!
