kobject: Replace strncpy with memcpy
commit 77d2a24b6107bd9b3bf2403a65c1428a9da83dd0 upstream. gcc 8.1.0 complains: lib/kobject.c:128:3: warning: 'strncpy' output truncated before terminating nul copying as many bytes from a string as its length [-Wstringop-truncation] lib/kobject.c: In function 'kobject_get_path': lib/kobject.c:125:13: note: length computed here Using strncpy() is indeed less than perfect since the length of data to be copied has already been determined with strlen(). Replace strncpy() with memcpy() to address the warning and optimize the code a little.
