[PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: Replace deprecated strcpy in ocfs2_create_xattr_block

[Thorsten Blum]

strcpy() has been deprecated [1] because it performs no bounds checking
on the destination buffer, which can lead to buffer overflows. Replace
it with the safer strscpy(), and copy directly into '->xb_signature'
instead of using the start of the struct as the destination buffer.

[PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Replace deprecated strcpy with strscpy

[Thorsten Blum]

strcpy() has been deprecated [1] because it performs no bounds checking
on the destination buffer, which can lead to buffer overflows. Replace
it with the safer strscpy(), and copy directly into '->rf_signature'
instead of using the start of the struct as the destination buffer.
