Fixes the following W=1 kernel build warning(s):

 from drivers/hwmon/ibmpowernv.c:11:
 In function ‘strncpy’,
 inlined from ‘get_sensor_index_attr’ at drivers/hwmon/ibmpowernv.c:243:2,
 inlined from ‘create_device_attrs’ at drivers/hwmon/ibmpowernv.c:280:8:
 include/linux/string.h:297:30: warning: ‘__builtin_strncpy’ specified bound 32 equals destination size [-Wstringop-truncation]
 297 | #define __underlying_strncpy __builtin_strncpy
 | ^
 include/linux/string.h:307:9: note: in expansion of macro ‘__underlying_strncpy’
 307 | return __underlying_strncpy(p, q, size);
