Subject: [PATCH] mtip32xx: use formatting capability of kthread_create_on_node
Date: Fri, 20 Nov 2015 10:46:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1448012809-15462-1-git-send-email-linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> (raw)

kthread_create_on_node takes format+args, so there's no need to do the
pretty-printing in advance. Moreover, "mtip_svc_thd_99" (including its
'\0') only just fits in 16 bytes, so if index could ever go above 99
we'd have a stack buffer overflow.
