commit a4833e3abae132d613ce7da0e0c9a9465d1681fa upstream.
The rpcgss_context trace event acceptor field is a dynamically sized
string that records the "data" parameter. But this parameter is also
dependent on the "len" field to determine the size of the data.
It needs to use __string_len() helper macro where the length can be passed
in. It also incorrectly uses strncpy() to save it instead of
__assign_str(). As these macros can change, it is not wise to open code
them in trace events.
As of commit c759e609030c ("tracing: Remove __assign_str_len()"),
__assign_str() can be used for both __string() and __string_len() fields.
Before that commit, __assign_str_len() is required to be used. This needs
to be noted for backporting. (In actuality, commit c1fa617caeb0 ("tracing:
Rework __assign_str() and __string() to not duplicate getting the string")
is the commit that makes __string_str_len() obsolete).

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 Restructured Text 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.
