Follow the advice of the below link and prefer 'strscpy' in this
subsystem. Conversion is 1:1 because the return value is not used.

This fixes only small part of the kernel code. It would make sense to
do a tree-wide change using a script.

Would you mind to create one and send it to Linus?

You might want to use Coccinelle if a simple sed/awk gets too
complicated. See
