[PATCH] apparmor: Replace deprecated strcpy in d_namespace_path

[PATCH] apparmor: Replace deprecated strcpy in d_namespace_path

[Thorsten Blum]

strcpy() is deprecated; replace it with a direct '/' assignment. The
buffer is already NUL-terminated, so there is no need to copy an
additional NUL terminator as strcpy() did.

Update the comment and add the local variable 'is_root' for clarity.
