./include/linux/string.h:305:9: warning: '__builtin_strncpy' specified
bound 32 equals destination size [-Wstringop-truncation]
  return __builtin_strncpy(p, q, size);
         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix it by using strscpy() which will always return a valid string, and
doesn't unnecessarily force the tail of the destination buffer to be
zeroed.
