Subject: [PATCH 4.9 084/107] b43/leds: Ensure NUL-termination of LED name string

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

------------------

From: Michael Buesch <m@...s.ch>

commit 2aa650d1950fce94f696ebd7db30b8830c2c946f upstream.

strncpy might not NUL-terminate the string, if the name equals the buffer size.
Use strlcpy instead.
