[PATCH 2/2] power: supply: sbs-battery: Bound the serial number conversion to 16 bits

[Babanpreet Singh <bbnpreetsingh@gmail.com>]

The SBS SerialNumber register is a 16-bit word and chip->serial[] is
sized for its four hex digits plus the NUL terminator. The value is
carried in an int, though, and only the negative half of that range is
rejected before the conversion, so the compiler has to assume
[0, INT_MAX] - up to eight digits:

drivers/power/supply/sbs-battery.c:835:32: warning: '%04x' directive writing between 4 and 8 bytes into a region of size 5 [-Wformat-overflow=]
drivers/power/supply/sbs-battery.c:835:31: note: directive argument in the range [0, 2147483647]
drivers/power/supply/sbs-battery.c:835:9: note: 'sprintf' output between 5 and 9 bytes into a destination of size 5

The overflow is not reachable: sbs_read_word_data() returns the result of
i2c_smbus_read_word_data(), which yields at most 0xffff on success, and
negative returns are rejected just above. Cast to u16 to state the
register width at the point of use, which also lets the compiler prove
the buffer is large enough. No functional change.

This is the only W=1 warning in this driver.
