[patch 2/2] lib/string.c: strlcpy() might read too far

[Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>]

Imagine you have a user controlled variable at the end of a struct which
is allocated at the end of a page.  The strlen() could read beyond the
mapped memory and cause an oops.

Probably there are two reasons why we have never hit this condition in
real life.  First you would have to be really unlucky for all the
variables to line up so the oops can happen.  Second we don't do a lot
of fuzzing with invalid strings.

The strnlen() call is obviously a little bit slower than strlen() but I
have tested it and I think it's probably ok.
