Trying to copy into the string fields with strncpy() gives a warning from
gcc. Both fields are part of a packed HDMI header and do not require a
terminating \0 character.
../drivers/video/hdmi.c: In function 'hdmi_spd_infoframe_init':
../drivers/video/hdmi.c:230:2: warning: 'strncpy' specified bound 8 equals destination size [-Wstringop-truncation]
230 | strncpy(frame->vendor, vendor, sizeof(frame->vendor));

../drivers/video/hdmi.c:231:2: warning: 'strncpy' specified bound 16 equals destination size [-Wstringop-truncation]

Just use memcpy() instead.

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.
