net: don't call strlen on non-terminated string in dev_set_alias()
KMSAN reported a use of uninitialized memory in dev_set_alias(), which was caused by calling strlcpy() (which in turn called strlen()) on the user-supplied non-terminated string. Signed-off-by: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
