[PATCH] staging: greybus: audio: add missing newline to sysfs_emit formats

[Brock Haftner]

The sysfs_emit() function is used to format strings that are returned
to userspace. According to the sysfs documentation, these outputs
should include a newline character for visual clarity.

Fix the checkpatch.pl warnings by adding the missing '\n' to the
sysfs_emit() format strings inside several functions.

Please don't do this for existing code, only for new code.  There
is a risck that user space relies on the old behavior.

We should delete this checkpatch warning really.  It could be a
sashiko rule which only applies for patches which introduce new
functions or something.
