[PATCH] fs: cifs: cifsencrypt.c: Cleaning up missing null-terminate in conjunction with strncpy

From: Rickard Strandqvist
Date: Wed Jun 25 2014 - 06:41:42 EST


Because the string is zeroed before, it's better to just copy one character less, instead of using strlcpy in this case.

This was found using a static code analysis program called cppcheck.
