Re: [PATCH 2/2] powerpc/text-patching: Fix possible stringop-overread compilation error

For strnlen(), if the compiler detects that the maxlen argument exceeds
the valid memory size of the input string object, a compilation error may
occur.

For lastest linux-next source, changing ppc_kallsyms_lookup_name() to
__always_inline, using default ppc64_defconfig, and setting
CONFIG_EXPERT=y, CONFIG_PPC64_BIG_ENDIAN_ELF_ABI_V2=n,
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y. Then, when using gcc-15 for compilation,
the following error will be triggered:

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Refer to the implementation of fortify's strnlen(). If the string length
is a compile-time constant, do not call the strnlen() function.
