[PATCH 12/12] netfilter: conntrack: use correct format characters

From: Bill Wendling <morbo@google.com>
Date: 2022-06-09 22:22:02
Also in: alsa-devel, linux-acpi, linux-edac, linux-mm, lkml, llvm, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: netfilter, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Pablo Neira Ayuso, Florian Westphal, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Bill Wendling <redacted>

When compiling with -Wformat, clang emits the following warnings:

net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_helper.c:168:18: error: format string is not a string literal (potentially insecure) [-Werror,-Wformat-security]
                request_module(mod_name);
                               ^~~~~~~~

Use a string literal for the format string.
