pcrypt: use format specifier in kobject_add
Passing string 'name' as the format specifier is potentially hazardous because name could (although very unlikely to) have a format specifier embedded in it causing issues when parsing the non-existent arguments to these. Follow best practice by using the "%s" format string for the string 'name'. Cleans up clang warning: crypto/pcrypt.c:397:40: warning: format string is not a string literal (potentially insecure) [-Wformat-security] Fixes: a3fb1e330dd2 ("pcrypt: Added sysfs interface to pcrypt") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
