sysfs: sysfs_pathname/sysfs_add_one: Use strlcat() instead of strcat()
commit 66081a72517a131430dcf986775f3268aafcb546 upstream. The warning check for duplicate sysfs entries can cause a buffer overflow when printing the warning, as strcat() doesn't check buffer sizes. Use strlcat() instead. Since strlcat() doesn't return a pointer to the passed buffer, unlike strcat(), I had to convert the nested concatenation in sysfs_add_one() to an admittedly more obscure comma operator construct, to avoid emitting code for the concatenation if CONFIG_BUG is disabled.
