    net/smc: use memcpy instead of snprintf to avoid out of bounds read
    
    [ Upstream commit b1871fd48efc567650dbdc974e5a2342a03fe0d2 ]
    
    Using snprintf() to convert not null-terminated strings to null
    terminated strings may cause out of bounds read in the source string.
    Therefore use memcpy() and terminate the target string with a null
    afterwards.
