The changes look good. However, I applied the patch and built
drivers/nvme/ with -Wformat-security, and I still see a couple of
additional warnings:

$ make M=drivers/nvme/ KCFLAGS="-Wformat-security"
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/nilay/Development/linux-x86/drivers/nvme'
[...]
host/sysfs.c: In function ‘cntrltype_show’:
host/sysfs.c:682:9: error: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Werror=format-security]
   682 |         return sysfs_emit(buf, type[ctrl->cntrltype]);
       |         ^~~~~~
host/sysfs.c: In function ‘dctype_show’:
host/sysfs.c:699:9: error: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Werror=format-security]
   699 |         return sysfs_emit(buf, type[ctrl->dctype]);
       |         ^~~~~~

I think that if we're fixing -Wformat-security warnings in the NVMe
driver, it would be useful to address above warnings as part of this
patch as well.

Thanks,
