Subject: [PATCH 5.4 055/111] hostfs: Use kasprintf() instead of fixed buffer formatting

From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@...ux.intel.com>

[ Upstream commit b58c4e96192ee7c47d5c67853b1557306cfa0e7f ]

Improve readability and maintainability by replacing a hardcoded string
allocation and formatting by the use of the kasprintf() helper.
