gcc -Wstringop-truncation warns about copying a string that results in a
missing nul termination:

drivers/acpi/acpica/tbfind.c: In function 'acpi_tb_find_table':
drivers/acpi/acpica/tbfind.c:60:9: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 6 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
   60 |         strncpy(header.oem_id, oem_id, ACPI_OEM_ID_SIZE);
      |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/acpi/acpica/tbfind.c:61:9: error: 'strncpy' specified bound 8 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
   61 |         strncpy(header.oem_table_id, oem_table_id, ACPI_OEM_TABLE_ID_SIZE);
      |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The code works as intended, and the warning could be addressed by using
a memcpy(), but turning the warning off for this file works equally well
and may be easir to merge.

Dang, I would've really liked to see these strncpy()'s dealt with [1]!

The warning is there because that specific usage of strncpy is plain
wrong. strncpy() is a string api and this usage looks like it has
arguments and results not resembling C-strings.

Not sure if turning off correct warnings is the right call.
