NUL-padding is not necessary as host_info is initialized to `ena_dev->host_attr.host_info` which is ultimately zero-initialized via alloc_etherdev_mq(). A suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding.
