`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1]. `efi_loader_signature` has space for 4 bytes. We are copying "Xen" (3 bytes) plus a NUL-byte which makes 4 total bytes. With that being said, there is currently not a bug with the current `strncpy()` implementation in terms of buffer overreads but we should favor a more robust string interface either way. A suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer while being functionally the same in this case.
