net: mvpp2: replace deprecated strncpy with strscpy
`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 expect `irqname` to be NUL-terminated based on its use with of_irq_get_byname() -> of_property_match_string() wherein it is used with a format string and a `strcmp`: | pr_debug("comparing %s with %s\n", string, p); | if (strcmp(string, p) == 0) | return i; /* Found it; return index */ NUL-padding is not required as is evident by other assignments to `irqname` which do not NUL-pad: | if (port->flags & MVPP2_F_DT_COMPAT) | snprintf(irqname, sizeof(irqname), "tx-cpu%d", i); | else | snprintf(irqname, sizeof(irqname), "hif%d", i); Considering the above, a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding.
