bna: ensure the copied buf is NUL terminated
[ Upstream commit 8c34096c7fdf272fd4c0c37fe411cd2e3ed0ee9f ]
Currently, we allocate a nbytes-sized kernel buffer and copy nbytes from
userspace to that buffer. Later, we use sscanf on this buffer but we don't
ensure that the string is terminated inside the buffer, this can lead to
OOB read when using sscanf. Fix this issue by using memdup_user_nul
instead of memdup_user.
