The code here is copying the version to inq.driver_version but we don't
want it to be NUL terminated.  Instead we pad the rest of the array with
spaces.  It's fewer lines to use strncpy() and maybe a little nicer.

This does the exact same thing as memcpy(), right? So why not use that?
memcpy() has much simpler semantics than strncpy().

You're right.  I've redone this.
