Greg has already picked it up for 6.18, which covers the tree you hit.
The offending selftests patch is also queued for 6.12 and 6.6, and you
were right that they're affected too. Unfortunately 63c49efc987a
doesn't apply there as-is: it depends on 9a6a6a319157 ("tools/testing:
add linux/args.h header and fix radix, VMA tests"), which isn't in
either tree.
Could you send adapted backports of the strscpy helper for 6.12.y and
6.6.y? I'll hold off on those branches until then.
