IMHO this is a false analysis.

shutdown_handlers[] is:

struct shutdown_handler {
#define SHUTDOWN_CMD_SIZE 11
         const char command[SHUTDOWN_CMD_SIZE];
         bool flag;
         void (*cb)(void);
};

static struct shutdown_handler shutdown_handlers[] = {
         { "poweroff",   true,   do_poweroff },
         { "halt",       false,  do_poweroff },
         { "reboot",     true,   do_reboot   },
#ifdef CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS
         { "suspend",    true,   do_suspend  },
#endif
};

And it is never changed.

We have:

#define FEATURE_PATH_SIZE (SHUTDOWN_CMD_SIZE + sizeof("feature-"))
         char node[FEATURE_PATH_SIZE];

So how on earth could the snprintf() destination not be large enough?
