Subject: platform/surface: Replace deprecated strcpy() in surface_button_add()
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1716c1e0860b42980f338b69b974149d035582ca;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

platform/surface: Replace deprecated strcpy() in surface_button_add()

strcpy() has been deprecated [1] because it performs no bounds checking
on the destination buffer, which can lead to buffer overflows. Replace
it with the safer strscpy().  No functional changes.
