Subject: [PATCH] security: smack: fix out-of-bounds access in smk_parse_smack()

From: Andrey Ryabinin <a.ryabinin@...sung.com>

Setting smack label on file (e.g. 'attr -S -s SMACK64 -V "test" test')
triggered following spew on the kernel with KASan applied:

strncpy() copies one byte more than the source string has.
Fix this by passing the correct length to strncpy().

Now we can remove initialization of the last byte in 'smack' string
because kzalloc() already did this for us.
