be truncated copying 256 bytes from a string of length 511

return __builtin_strncpy(p, q, size);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fix it by using the new strscpy_pad() since the commit 458a3bf82d
("lib/string: Add strscpy_pad() function") which will always
NUL-terminate the string, and avoid possibly leak data through the ring
buffer where non-admin account might enable these events through perf.
Fixes: fd1483fe1f ("net/mlx5: Add support for FW reporter dump")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
