if  xprt->debugfs->d_name.name can be what ever long
it is more clever to use kasprintf()
the some for link (no idea how many xprt als possible)

Betreff: [PATCH] net: sunrpc: Fix 'snprintf' return value check in 'do_xprt_debugfs'

'snprintf' returns the number of characters which would have been written
if enough space had been available, excluding the terminating null byte.
Thus, the return value of 'sizeof(buf)' means that the last character
has been dropped.
