This is not good.
vendor can be any location and shorter than sizeof(frame->vendor)
so this can copy from invalid memory locations.
You probably want strscpy.
This is called with at least "mediatek" and "broadcom", so perhaps
it's better still to change the struct vendor size to something a
bit larger. Maybe change vendor[8] to vendor[16];
include/linux/hdmi.h:struct hdmi_spd_infoframe {
include/linux/hdmi.h- enum hdmi_infoframe_type type;
include/linux/hdmi.h- unsigned char version;
include/linux/hdmi.h- unsigned char length;
include/linux/hdmi.h- char vendor[8];
include/linux/hdmi.h- char product[16];
include/linux/hdmi.h- enum hdmi_spd_sdi sdi;
include/linux/hdmi.h-};
