arch: sparc: kernel: check the memory length before use strcpy().
For the related next strcpy(), the destination length is less than 512, but the source maximize length may be 'OPROMMAXPARAM' (4096) which is more than 512. One work flow may: openprom_sunos_ioctl() -> if (cmd == OPROMSETOPT) getstrings() -> will alloc buffer with size 'OPROMMAXPARAM'. opromsetopt() -> devide the buffer into 'var' and 'value' of_set_property() -> pass prom_setprop() -> pass ldom_set_var() And do not mind the additional 4 alignment buffer increasing, since 'sizeof(pkt) - sizeof(pkt.header)' is 4 alignment at least.
