patches/old/alpha-replace-sprintf-strcpy-with-scnprintf-strscpy.patch

From: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev>
Subject: alpha: replace sprintf()/strcpy() with scnprintf()/strscpy()
Date: Wed, 21 May 2025 14:18:38 +0200

Replace sprintf() with the safer variant scnprintf() and use its return
value instead of calculating the string length again using strlen().

Use strscpy() instead of the deprecated strcpy().

No functional changes intended.
