Previously, bpf_probe_read_user_str() could potentially overcopy the trailing bytes after the NUL due to how do_strncpy_from_user() does the copy in long-sized strides. The issue has been fixed in the previous commit. This commit adds a selftest that ensures we don't regress bpf_probe_read_user_str() again.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
