Which is why the provably correct matters.
coccinelle transforms can be, but are not necessarily, provably correct.
The _show transforms done via the sysfs_emit_dev.cocci script are correct as in commit aa838896d87a ("drivers core: Use sysfs_emit and sysfs_emit_at for show(device *...) functions")
Worthwhile? A different question, but I think yes as it reduces the overall question space of the existing other sprintf overrun possibilities.
