[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ASoC: soc-core: Replace use of strncpy() with strlcpy()

[Dimitris Papastamos]

By using strncpy() if the source string does not have a null byte in the
first n bytes, then the destination string is not null-terminated.
This can be fixed in a two-step process by manually null-terminating the
array after the use of strncpy() or by using strlcpy().
