Few of the notable Kernel improvements will be landing/visible in next release i.e., 7.2

\+- strscpy() when the destination must be NUL-terminated.

\+- strscpy_pad() when the destination must be NUL-terminated and

\+ zero-padded (e.g., structs crossing privilege boundaries).

\+- memtostr() for NUL-terminated destinations from non-NUL-terminated

\+ fixed-width sources (with the `__nonstring` attribute on the source).

\+- memtostr_pad() for the same, but with zero-padding.

\+- strtomem() for non-NUL-terminated fixed-width destinations, with

\+ the `__nonstring` attribute on the destination.

\+- strtomem_pad() for non-NUL-terminated destinations that also need

\+ zero-padding.

\+- memcpy_and_pad() for bounded copies from potentially unterminated

\+ sources where the destination size is a runtime value.
