For NUL terminated string, need always let it ended by zero. The 'name' may be copied to user mode ('dvb_fe->ops.info' is 'struct dvb_frontend_info' which is defined in ./include/uapi/...), and its length is also known within as102_dvb_register_fe(), so need fully initialize it (not use strlcpy instead of strncpy).
