sweep the floors and convert some .get_drvinfo routines to strlcpy

Per the mention made by Ben Hutchings that strlcpy is now the preferred
string copy routine for a .get_drvinfo routine, do a bit of floor
sweeping and convert some of the as-yet unconverted ethernet drivers to
it.

Fix up conflicts in:
- drivers/net/Kconfig:
The split-up generated a trivial conflict with removal of a
stale reference to Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt.
Remove it from the new location instead.
- fs/sysfs/dir.c:
Fairly nasty conflicts with the sysfs rb-tree usage, conflicting
with Eric Biederman's changes for tagged directories.
