mtd: sm_ftl: Replace deprecated strncpy with sysfs_emit in sm_attr_show

Browse source

strncpy() is deprecated [1] for NUL-terminated destination buffers
because it does not guarantee NUL termination. It also unnecessarily
NUL-pads the destination buffer if the source is shorter. Replace it
with sysfs_emit() using the "%.*s" format specifier and supply the
length 'sm_attr->len' to improve sm_attr_show().

Return the number of characters actually written to 'buf' instead of
'sm_attr->len'.
