Josh Law bbdb80f29e lib/bootconfig: fix snprintf truncation check in xbc_node_compose_key_after()
commit 1120a36bb1 upstream.

snprintf() returns the number of characters that would have been
written excluding the NUL terminator.  Output is truncated when the
return value is >= the buffer size, not just > the buffer size.

When ret == size, the current code takes the non-truncated path,
advancing buf by ret and reducing size to 0.  This is wrong because
the output was actually truncated (the last character was replaced by
NUL).  Fix by using >= so the truncation path is taken correctly.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
