From: HariKrishna Sagala <hariconscious at gmail.com>

Replace snprintf() with scnprintf() when constructing the property
and remove negative return error handling as scnprintf() returns the
actual number of bytes written to buffer.

snprintf() as defined by the C99 standard,returns the number of 
characters that *would have been* written if enough space were 
available.Use scnprintf() that returns the actual number of 
characters written.

This patch optimizes the error handling part of property formatting
using the scnrpintf().
Removed the error check ret < 0 as scnprintf() doesn't return the
negative value as per contract.

Thank you.
