Hmm, this isn't enough; as far as I can see there is no validation
whatsover.

This should also check that all of:

char genre[MAXGENRELEN];
char version[MAXGENRELEN];
char subtype[MAXGENRELEN];

... have a NUL byte. You could use strnlen() == ARRAY_SIZE() -> EINVAL
for those.

Maybe there is more to be validated, I did not followup with all the
nested structures buried in user_finger struct.
