commit d660f4f42ccea50262c6ee90c8e7ad19a69fb225 upstream.

The memdup_user() function does not necessarily return a NUL terminated
string so this can lead to a read overflow.  Switch from memdup_user()
to strndup_user() to fix this bug.

Fixes: c6dc001f2add ("staging: r8712u: Merging Realtek's latest (v2.6.6). Various fixes.")
