Subject: [PATCH 1/2] init: Use strscpy() in initcall_blacklist()
Date: Sun, 15 Nov 2026 15:23:20 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261115142321.96774-3-blum@kernel.org> (raw)

Replace the deprecated strcpy() [1] with strscpy() to bound the copy to
the allocated buffer size.

Also use a simple while loop to reduce code indentation.
