[PATCH v4] net: don't call strlen on non-terminated string in dev_set_alias()

[Alexander Potapenko]

KMSAN reported a use of uninitialized memory in dev_set_alias(),
which was caused by calling strlcpy() (which in turn called strlen())
on the user-supplied non-terminated string.

v4: dropped the comment at all, as suggested by Yury Norov
v3: removed the multi-line comment
v2: fixed an off-by-one error spotted by Dmitry Vyukov

For the record, here is the KMSAN report:
