[ Upstream commit ccfb62f27b ]
The user can change the device_name with the IMSETDEVNAME ioctl, but we
need to ensure that the user's name is NUL terminated. Otherwise it
could result in a buffer overflow when we copy the name back to the user
with IMGETDEVINFO ioctl.
I also changed two strcpy() calls which handle the name to strscpy().
Hopefully, there aren't any other ways to create a too long name, but
it's nice to do this as a kernel hardening measure.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
