strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first.
This read may exceed the destination size limit.
This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read
overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1].
In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace
strlcpy() here with strscpy().

Direct replacement is safe here since return value of -errno
is used to check for truncation instead of sizeof(dest).

Applied, thanks!

And the same question here, why are you taking wifi patches without
acks? And this already fixed differently in wireless-next so our trees
conflict now:

Thanks for pointing that out! I saw no feedback on Azeem's patch, so it
looked like it was being ignored.

For the patch you linked to -- it's okay to have lost the overflow
detection and warning?

Regardless, I will drop this from my tree.

It's a fixed constant string being copied into a larger fixed array.
It really doesn't matter functionality-wise. At best, the error check
would be useful for human readers or automated tools. So I didn't
bother complaining one way or another, as it took enough tries for the
submitter to get things right in the first place.
