[GIT PULL] Smack patches for v6.0

[Casey Schaufler]

Hello Linus,

Here is the Smack pull request for v6.0.

There are two minor code clean-ups. One removes a touch of
dead code and the other replaces an instance of kzalloc + strncpy
with kstrndup. The changes have been in next and pass all tests.
Thank you.

Hmm. That second one looks like it really should have just used
"kmemdup()" (and a zero termination) instead, since it has already
done all the string length calculations.

Oh well. I guess the strndup() works too, but it seems kind of odd to
do a strnlen() there when you have literally limited 'len' to smaller
than the string you are going to duplicate.
