Use strscpy() to copy the NUL-terminated early parameter 'from' to the
destination buffer instead of using memcpy() followed by a manual NUL
termination. If the early parameter contains a space, use min() to copy
only up to that delimiter, otherwise copy the entire string. Drop the
now unused 'mv_len' variable.

Remove the redundant 'mv_name' initialization because it is immediately
populated by strscpy(). Drop 'mv_comma', which has been unused since
commit 9655ad03af2d ("sh: Fixup machvec support."), and remove the dead
'from = mv_end' assignment. Since panic() is a '__noreturn' function,
remove the else branch as well.

Change 'machvec_selected' from unsigned int to bool and move
'__initdata' after the variable name to silence a checkpatch warning.
