Justin Stitt 712b3f43ba scsi: ibmvscsi: Replace deprecated strncpy() with strscpy()
strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1]
and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string
interfaces.

We expect partition_name to be NUL-terminated based on its usage with
format strings:
|       dev_info(hostdata->dev, "host srp version: %s, "
|                "host partition %s (%d), OS %d, max io %u\n",
|                hostdata->madapter_info.srp_version,
|                hostdata->madapter_info.partition_name,
|                be32_to_cpu(hostdata->madapter_info.partition_number),
|                be32_to_cpu(hostdata->madapter_info.os_type),
|                be32_to_cpu(hostdata->madapter_info.port_max_txu[0]));
...
|       len = snprintf(buf, PAGE_SIZE, "%s\n",
|                hostdata->madapter_info.partition_name);

Moreover, NUL-padding is not required as madapter_info is explicitly
memset to 0:
|       memset(&hostdata->madapter_info, 0x00,
|                       sizeof(hostdata->madapter_info));

Considering the above, a suitable replacement is strscpy() [2] due to the
fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without
unnecessarily NUL-padding.
