Commit Message

gcc-8 warns during link-time optimization that the strncpy() call
passes the size of the source buffer rather than the destination:

drivers/scsi/qedf/qedf_dbg.c: In function 'qedf_uevent_emit':
include/linux/string.h:253: error: 'strncpy' specified bound depends on the length of the source argument [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]

This changes it to strscpy() with the correct length, guaranteeing
a properly nul-terminated string of the right size.

Applied to 4.17/scsi-queue. Thanks!
