Subsquent lines here are:
        } else {
                if (strscpy(act_name, "police", IFNAMSIZ) < 0) {
		                                ^^^^^^^^
                        NL_SET_ERR_MSG(extack, "TC action name too long");

I know it won't make a difference in the end but it would be nice to
keep it consistent.
