strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. The only caller of mptsas_exp_repmanufacture_info() is mptsas_probe_one_phy() which can allocate rphy in either sas_end_device_alloc() or sas_expander_alloc(). Both of which zero-allocate: | rdev = kzalloc(sizeof(*rdev), GFP_KERNEL); ... this is supplied to mptsas_exp_repmanufacture_info() as edev meaning that no future NUL-padding of edev members is needed. Considering the above, a suitable replacement is strscpy() [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding. Also use the more idiomatic strscpy() pattern of (dest, src, sizeof(dest)).
