Subject: [PATCH 4.16 11/18] net: fool proof dev_valid_name()

4.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit a9d48205d0aedda021fc3728972a9e9934c2b9de ]

We want to use dev_valid_name() to validate tunnel names,
so better use strnlen(name, IFNAMSIZ) than strlen(name) to make
sure to not upset KASAN.
