__string could get a dst string with length less than
TASK_COMM_LEN.

A task->comm may change that can cause out of bounds access
for the dst string buffer, e.g in the call trace of below:

Call trace:

dump_backtrace.cfi_jt+0x0/0x4
show_stack+0x14/0x1c
dump_stack+0xa0/0xd8
die_callback+0x248/0x24c
notify_die+0x7c/0xf8
die+0xac/0x290
die_kernel_fault+0x88/0x98
die_kernel_fault+0x0/0x98
do_page_fault+0xa0/0x544
do_mem_abort+0x60/0x10c
el1_da+0x1c/0xc4

trace_event_raw_event_cgroup_migrate+0x124/0x170

You're sure the above is on the strcpy()?

Note, this code has __string() which does a strlen() which appears to be
working fine.

cgroup_attach_task+0x2e8/0x41c
__cgroup1_procs_write+0x114/0x1ec
cgroup1_tasks_write+0x10/0x18
cgroup_file_write+0xa4/0x208
kernfs_fop_write+0x1f0/0x2f4
__vfs_write+0x5c/0x200
vfs_write+0xe0/0x1a0
ksys_write+0x74/0xdc
__arm64_sys_write+0x18/0x20
el0_svc_common+0xc0/0x1a4
el0_svc_compat_handler+0x18/0x20
el0_svc_compat+0x8/0x2c

Can you give the full debug report, that includes the register content and
everything else.

hi,Steve:
I simulate a what I supposed problem, but it did not panic.
I will use kasan to debug further. thanks for your review and suggest on this problem. abandon this patch now currently, if there is new proved problem, I will come again.
