strcpy() has been deprecated [1] because it performs no bounds checking on the destination buffer, which can lead to buffer overflows. Replace it with the safer strscpy_pad(), and use kmalloc() instead of kzalloc() because strscpy_pad() zero-pads the destination buffer and therefore avoids writing to it twice.
