x86/MCE: Fix stack out-of-bounds write in mce-inject.c: Flags_read()
Each of the strings that we want to put into the buf[MAX_FLAG_OPT_SIZE] in flags_read() is two characters long. But the sprintf() adds a trailing newline and will add a terminating NUL byte. So MAX_FLAG_OPT_SIZE needs to be 4. sprintf() calls vsnprintf() and *that* does return: " * The return value is the number of characters which would * be generated for the given input, excluding the trailing * '\0', as per ISO C99." Note the "excluding".
