From e343023e03d2bdadf6551298863c09b4cba5963d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Justin Stitt Date: Wed, 11 Oct 2023 21:37:18 +0000 Subject: net: sparx5: replace deprecated strncpy with ethtool_sprintf strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. ethtool_sprintf() is designed specifically for get_strings() usage. Let's replace strncpy() in favor of this more robust and easier to understand interface.
