Uh, what's going on here?

hdev is:

struct hci_dev {
	...
        const char      *name;

ni is:

struct hci_mon_new_index {
        char            name[8];

You can't use "strlen" here in the case that "hdev->name" is larger than
8 bytes.

Also, why memcpy() and not strscpy()? Is this supposed to be padded out
with %NUL bytes? It appears to be sent over the network, so "yes" seems
to be the safe answer.

Should ni->name be always %NUL terminated? That I can't tell for sure,
but I assume "no", because the solution was to explicitly copy all the
bytes _except_ the %NUL byte (using strlen).

struct hci_mon_new_index's "name" should be marked __nonstring, and
instead strtomem_pad() should be used instead of memcpy.
