It's generally nicer to avoid unnecessary output spaces.

Perhaps:

{
	int len = 0;

	if (GH_IDENTIFY_PARTITION_CSPACE(gunyah_api.flags))
		len += sysfs_emit_at(buffer, len, "cspace");
	if (GH_IDENTIFY_MSGQUEUE(gunyah_api.flags)) {
		if (len)
			len += sysfs_emit_at(buffer, len, " ");
		len += sysfs_emit_at(buffer, len, "message-queue");
	}

	len += sysfs_emit_at(buffer, len, "\n");

	return len;
}
