That's a good point. If you want I can add a commit renaming this
variable for v2.

This is because it refers to an issue on Github that is tracking the
effort to move away from strcpy in favor of strscpy. I've seen many
commits tracked there that followed this notation and thus I thought
that was the right thing. Anyways, if you want I can transform this
into a Link tag:

Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/88

Or otherwise reference it in any other way you feel is more appropiate.
