[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6] drivers/net: fix possible overflow with strcat

[Chaitanya Babu Talluri <tallurix.chaitanya.babu@intel.com>]

strcat does not check the destination length and there might be
chances of string overflow so instead of strcat, strlcat is used.

Fixes: 540a211084 ("bnx2x: driver core")
Fixes: e163c18a15 ("net/i40e: update ptype and pctype info")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org

v6: Updated title.
v5: Removed strcat.
v4: Corrected usage of strlcat.
v3: Instead of strncat, used strlcat.
v2: Instead of strncat, used snprintf.
