Reverse Christmas Tree style? Should be the first one in the declaration
list.

You can fix it in a different way. Given that there's a kzalloc() either
way, why not allocate the precise required amount of bytes by using
kasprintf() instead of kzalloc() + snprintf()? You wouldn't need to
calculate any buffer sizes etc. this way.
