[PATCH 2/2] docs/sysfs: show() methods should use scnprintf().

[Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org>]

Since snprintf() may return a value that exceeds its second argument,
show() methods should use scnprintf() instead of snprintf(). This patch
updates the example in the sysfs documentation accordingly.
