Commit 1b56c90018f0 ("Makefile: Enable -Wstringop-overflow globally") exposes a
warning for a common bug in the usage of strncat():
drivers/edac/thunderx_edac.c: In function 'thunderx_ocx_com_threaded_isr':

Apparently the author of this driver expected strncat() to behave the
way that strlcat() does, which uses the size of the destination buffer
as its third argument rather than the length of the source buffer.
The result is that there is no check on the size of the allocated
buffer.
Change it to use strncat().

Commit ID is stable enough so that it doesn't change?
I don't want to commit it now and it would happen to change later and
I'll have a stale reference in the commit message...

Doh, obviously.
