I think this needs some justification.
Why is strscpy_pad() preferred in this case?
Also, assuming this is not a bug-fix for 'net', then it is an enhancement,
and should be targeted at net-next.
Subject: [PATCH net-next] ...
As it stands, net-next is closed:
## Form letter - net-next-closed
The merge window for v6.6 has begun and therefore net-next is closed
for new drivers, features, code refactoring and optimizations.
We are currently accepting bug fixes only.
Please repost when net-next reopens after Sept 11th.
RFC patches sent for review only are obviously welcome at any time.

The line above is no longer indented correctly.
