strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings
[1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string
interfaces.

psvt->limit.string can only be 8 bytes so let's use the appropriate size
macro ACPI_LIMIT_STR_MAX_LEN.

Neither psvt->limit.string or psvt_user[i].limit.string requires the
NUL-padding behavior that strncpy() provides as they have both been
filled with NUL-bytes prior to the string operation.
|	memset(&psvt->limit, 0, sizeof(u64));
and
| 	psvt_user = kzalloc(psvt_len, GFP_KERNEL);

Let's use `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees
NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily
NUL-padding.
