mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.10-rc1 commit cc5645fddb0ce28492b15520306d092730dffa48 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/IA6SGB CVE: CVE-2024-38577

Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i...

---------------------------

There is a possibility of buffer overflow in show_rcu_tasks_trace_gp_kthread() if counters, passed to sprintf() are huge. Counter numbers, needed for this are unrealistically high, but buffer overflow is still possible.

Use snprintf() with buffer size instead of sprintf().
