The rpcgss_context trace event acceptor field is a dynamically sized string that records the "data" parameter. But this parameter is also dependent on the "len" field to determine the size of the data. It needs to use __string_len() helper macro where the length can be passed in. It also incorrectly uses strncpy() to save it instead of __assign_str(). As these macros can change, it is not wise to open code them in trace events. As of commit c759e609030c ("tracing: Remove __assign_str_len()"), __assign_str() can be used for both __string() and __string_len() fields. Before that commit, __assign_str_len() is required to be used. This needs to be noted for backporting. (In actuality, commit c1fa617caeb0 ("tracing: Rework __assign_str() and __string() to not duplicate getting the string") is the commit that makes __string_str_len() obsolete).
