You are right. I noticed this during manual source inspection and
incorrectly treated the fixed-size copy as something that should use a
string helper.

I did not measure any throughput improvement or test the change on
hardware. The original patch was only checked with checkpatch and by
applying the received email, so it is not sufficiently justified. Please
drop it.

On rechecking the code, ifname_mon is written and cleared but never read.
The appropriate cleanup is to remove the unused field and its dead stores
instead. I have compile-tested that cleanup with W=1 against staging-next
and will send it separately.

Sorry for the noise, and thanks for the review.
