Could you also clean up the strncpy present in
drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/os_dep/os_intfs.c so all these are cleaned
up at once?

Maybe we could use the new 2-argument version of strscpy() introduced
in Commit e6584c3964f2f ("string: Allow 2-argument strscpy()") for all
3 of these too.

It looks like:
strscpy(dest, src);
