[PATCH v2] staging: greybus: loopback: use sysfs_emit in sysfs show functions

[PATCH v2] staging: greybus: loopback: use sysfs_emit in sysfs show functions

[Luis Soza Rodriguez]

As per the kernel's documentation, sysfs_emit() is the preferred way
to format strings for sysfs attributes. It handles buffer overruns
safely. Replace sprintf calls with sysfs_emit across all loopback
sysfs show macros.
