Hi Przemyslaw,

I agree that it is good to address this problem.
But is it a bug?

It seems to me that of the 8 bytes of pin_name, three are available for %u.
So values up to 999 can be safely formatted.  And I suspect that
pf->dplls.rclk.num_parents is always significantly smaller than that.

If so, I'd suggest this is iwl-next material. And should not have
a Fixes tag. But you could cite the commit that introduced the problem
something like this (the part starting with 'commit' is the syntax for
citing commits):

Introduced by commit ad1df4f2d591 ("ice: dpll: Support E825-C SyncE and
dynamic pin discovery")
