Arnd Bergmann 1b61680cfe staging: rts5208: replace weird strncpy() with memcpy()
When -Wstringop-truncation is enabled, gcc finds a function that
always does a short copy:

In function 'inquiry',
    inlined from 'rtsx_scsi_handler' at drivers/staging/rts5208/rtsx_scsi.c:3210:12:
drivers/staging/rts5208/rtsx_scsi.c:526:17: error: 'strncpy' output truncated copying between 1 and 28 bytes from a string of length 28 [-Werror=stringop-truncation]
  526 |                 strncpy(buf + 8, inquiry_string, sendbytes - 8);
      |                 ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The code originally had a memcpy() that would overread the source string,
and commit 88a5b39b69 ("staging/rts5208: Fix read overflow in memcpy")
fixed this but introduced the warning about truncation in the process.

As Dan points out, the final space in the inquiry_string always gets
cut off, so remove it here for clarity, leaving exactly the 28 non-NUL
characters that can get copied into the output. In the 'pro_formatter_flag'
this is followed by another 20 bytes from the 'formatter_inquiry_str'
array, but there the output never contains a NUL-termination, and the
length is known, so memcpy() is the more logical choice.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
