[PATCH v2 RESEND 0/6] USB: add usb_make_subpath() to replace strlcat() in input drivers

[Shihuang Liu <shlomojune6@gmail.com>]

Several USB input drivers build their physical device paths by calling
usb_make_path() and then appending "/input0" or "/input1" with strlcat().

In preparation for removing the deprecated strlcat() API [1], introduce
usb_make_subpath() and convert these callers to use it.

Patch 1 adds the helper in include/linux/usb.h. Patches 2-6 convert the
joystick, misc, mouse, tablet and touchscreen drivers, respectively.

This is a resend of v2 to include the USB maintainers and mailing list
that I missed in the original posting.

Original v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20261021123146.17202-1-shlomojune6@gmail.com/

No changes to the patches since v2

Changes in v2:
  - Add usb_make_subpath() as the first patch in the series.
  - Use the helper instead of open-coding strnlen() and strscpy() in
    each input driver.
  - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20261016170411.51025-1-shlomojune6@gmail.com/
