From 61daf055ea42342dea1f7006833bc7cde20eeb34 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rickard Strandqvist Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2014 23:17:23 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] hwrng: core - Changed from using strncat to strlcat The buf is used to hold the list of hwrng devices registered. The old code ensures we don't walk off the end of buf as we fill it, but it's unnecessarily complicated and thus difficult to maintain. Simplify it by using strlcat.
