[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 032/103] rtl8187: Fix warning generated when strncpy() destination length matches the sixe argument

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2019-11-08 12:00:14
Also in: linux-wireless, lkml, stable
Subsystem: rtl8187 wireless driver, the rest · Maintainers: Hin-Tak Leung, Linus Torvalds

From: Larry Finger <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 199ba9faca909e77ac533449ecd1248123ce89e7 ]

In gcc8, when the 3rd argument (size) of a call to strncpy() matches the
length of the first argument, the compiler warns of the possibility of an
unterminated string. Using strlcpy() forces a null at the end.
