I'd be tempted to just remove the first paragraph and reword the second
as:

Remove the hexagon implementation of strncpy/strnlen and instead use the
generic versions.  The hexago version of strncpy reads the data twice by
doing an extra strnlen(), and it apparently lacks a check for
user_addr_max().
