This depends on how we define the semantics of strlcpy().
The implementation in lib/string.c
(http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/lib/string.c#L129) says that
we're copying a C-string |src|, which _may_ denote it should be
zero-terminated.
I would still call strnlen() instead of strlen() in strlcpy() though.

Sorry, I've sent a fixed patch while you were writing your comment.
Of course, we shouldn't copy more than 14 bytes.
