Subject[PATCH] platform/x86: replace strcpy() with strscpy()
Date
Replace strcpy() with strscpy() in dell_rbu to use the preferred

kernel string API for bounded copies.

The destination buffer size is known at compile time

(sizeof(image_type)), so this conversion is safe.

No functional change intended.
