This patch is just about silencing inferior static analysis tools,
right?  Most checkers can figure out the size of the array and verify
that it has space for "802.11".  Probably it's only raw grep which
can't.

It doesn't make sense to me that we have strscpy() followed by strcat.
So let's fix both.
