I think it would be good to handle difference from snprintf() behaviour 
here and specify
that fw_version_get callback has exactly snprintf()-like return value. 
It would allow to avoid
duplicated code in all drivers (adding 1 for terminating null, 
conversion of success value to 0).
Also I think warning about insufficient space is not required. It could 
be intentional to call
the first time with 0 (or some small) space to get required space to be 
(re)allocated.
May be debug level message would be useful.

If we finally have different return value for 
rte_eth_dev_fw_version_get() and here,
it would be useful to highlight it here.

It is OK for me to keep 0 for success here and it is right in this case 
to include terminating null
iin the return value if size is insufficient (to cover corner case with 
empty FW version).
Please, highlight that terminating null is included here. It is the 
difference from snprintf() and
it should be 100% clear.
