  sprintf function is not secure as it doesn't check the length of string.
More secure function snprintf is used.

Fixes: 473d1bebce ("hash: allow to store data in hash table")

It looks like %u should be used since hashtest_key_lens is unsigned
32 bit value.

Since the values in table are always small enough, I don't see why
this should go to stable.
