Subject: [PATCH] fs/hfsplus: use memcpy() instead of strncpy()

From: Xiongfeng Wang <xiongfeng.wang@...aro.org>

gcc-8 reports

inlined from 'copy_name' at fs/hfsplus/xattr.c:416:3:
./include/linux/string.h:245:9: warning: '__builtin_strncpy' output
truncated before terminating nul copying 4 bytes from a string of the
same length [-Wstringop-truncation]

Since we don't need to copy '\0', we can just use memcpy() to avoid this
warning.
