Subject: [PATCH 10/12] netfilter: x_tables: avoid stack-out-of-bounds read in xt_copy_counters_from_user

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

syzkaller reports an out of bound read in strlcpy(), triggered
by xt_copy_counters_from_user()

Fix this by using memcpy(), then forcing a zero byte at the last position
of the destination, as Florian did for the non COMPAT code.
