[PATCH net-next] wl18xx: use strscpy() to instead of strncpy()
Posted by yang.yang29@zte.com.cn 2 years, 8 months ago
From: Xu Panda <xu.panda@zte.com.cn>

The implementation of strscpy() is more robust and safer.
That's now the recommended way to copy NUL-terminated strings.

Wireless patches go to wireless-next, not net-next. Also always Cc
