Subject: [PATCH net-next] can: slcan: use scnprintf() as a hardening measure

The snprintf() function returns the number of bytes which *would* have
been copied if there were no space.  So, since this code does not check
the return value, there if the buffer was not large enough then there
would be a buffer overflow two lines later when it does:

	actual = sl->tty->ops->write(sl->tty, sl->xbuff, n);

Use scnprintf() instead because that returns the number of bytes which
were actually copied.

Fixes: 52f9ac85b876 ("can: slcan: allow to send commands to the adapter")
