Subject: [PATCH 5.10 088/717] firmware: tegra: fix strncpy()/strncat() confusion

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>

[ Upstream commit 9294996f0be40e9da818ed891c82397ab63c00d0 ]

The way that bpmp_populate_debugfs_inband() uses strncpy()
and strncat() makes no sense since the size argument for
the first is insufficient to contain the trailing '/'
and the second passes the length of the input rather than
the output, which triggers a warning:

In function 'strncat',
    inlined from 'bpmp_populate_debugfs_inband' at ../drivers/firmware/tegra/bpmp-debugfs.c:422:4:
include/linux/string.h:289:30: warning: '__builtin_strncat' specified bound depends on the length of the source argument [-Wstringop-overflow=]

      |                              ^

  321 |   return __underlying_strlen(p);

Simplify this to use an snprintf() instead.
