Subject: [PATCH 5.4 89/92] netfilter: xt_RATEEST: reject non-null terminated string from userspace

From: Florian Westphal <fw@...len.de>

commit 6cb56218ad9e580e519dcd23bfb3db08d8692e5a upstream.

syzbot reports:
detected buffer overflow in strlen
[..]
Call Trace:
 strlen include/linux/string.h:325 [inline]
 strlcpy include/linux/string.h:348 [inline]
 xt_rateest_tg_checkentry+0x2a5/0x6b0 net/netfilter/xt_RATEEST.c:143

strlcpy assumes src is a c-string. Check info->name before its used.
