CIFS: Fix a potencially linear read overflow
[ Upstream commit f980d055a0f858d73d9467bb0b570721bbfcdfb8 ] strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed the destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated. Also, the strnlen() call does not avoid the read overflow in the strlcpy function when a not NUL-terminated string is passed. So, replace this block by a call to kstrndup() that avoids this type of overflow and does the same.
