Could non-applying this patch cause false-positive fortify_panic?

I don't find this patch appled to stable/linux-6.1.y.

Thanks,

ps. (Unfortunately `CIFSSMBSetEA+0xc` address is not resolvable to the
actual line inside of CIFSSMBSetEA pointing just to the head of it.

   (gdb) l *CIFSSMBSetEA+0xc
   0x6de3c is in CIFSSMBSetEA (fs/smb/client/cifssmb.c:5776).
   5771    int
   5772    CIFSSMBSetEA(const unsigned int xid, struct cifs_tcon *tcon,

But there is only one strncpy there.
