> In what way exactly is it vulnerable?
strcpy is a deprecated interface (reference: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/88). It should be removed from kernel source.
It is reported as vulnerable in Enabling Linux in Safety Critical Applications (ELISA) builder.

> Why is a runtime check needed here if all of the sizes in question are known at compile time?
Runtime check has been replaced with compile time check.

v1 -> v2: Commit message has been updated and runtime check is replace with compile time check.
