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 [1].
In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace
strlcpy() here with strscpy().

Direct replacement is safe here since return value of -errno
is used to check for truncation instead of sizeof(dest).

v2:

Looks good to me.

Ah, okay, no worries. I will drop it from mine.

Maybe I should have let you take it. I had v1 in my queue, and pushed
that one :-p

I'll fix it later.
