Yes, that is what drvinfo->fw_version uses, and it seems it has been around
enough to not cause any build issue, will use that one.

Just to be cautious about changing API, to not have any problem with older
version of kernels.
But it seems strlcpy supported long enough to not cause an issue, I will use it.
