net: liquidio: replace deprecated strncpy with strscpy_pad
`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. We know `fw_type` must be NUL-terminated based on use here: | static bool fw_type_is_auto(void) | { | return strncmp(fw_type, LIO_FW_NAME_TYPE_AUTO, | sizeof(LIO_FW_NAME_TYPE_AUTO)) == 0; | } ...and here | module_param_string(fw_type, fw_type, sizeof(fw_type), 0444); Let's opt to NUL-pad the destination buffer as well so that we maintain the same exact behavior that `strncpy` provided here. A suitable replacement is `strscpy_pad` due to the fact that it guarantees both NUL-termination and NUL-padding on the destination buffer.
