In __hdmi_lpe_audio_probe(), strscpy() is incorrectly called with the
length of the source string (excluding the NUL terminator) rather than
the size of the destination buffer. This results in one character less
being copied from 'card->shortname' to 'pcm->name'.

Since 'pcm->name' is a fixed-size buffer, we can safely omit the size
argument and let strscpy() infer it using sizeof(). This ensures the
card name is copied correctly.

Hi Thorsten,

Thanks for the patch.

Could you use three arguments here for backporting -- the two-argument
variant is a rather new addition and looks like 75b1a8f9d62e precedes it.

Thanks for the hint!
