Yeah, deleting all the enter/exit calls would be better.

unrelated trivia:

lbs_deb_enter is used incorrectly here at
function exit as both enter and leave calls.

That type of copy/paste defect may be common.

$ git grep -w lbs_deb_enter | wc -l
148
$ git grep -w lbs_deb_leave | wc -l
71

One would expect these numbers to be the same.

Another option would be to delete all these
calls as ftrace function tracing works well.

[PATCH] libertas: Avoid reading past end of buffer

[Kees Cook]

Using memcpy() from a string that is shorter than the length copied means
the destination buffer is being filled with arbitrary data from the kernel
rodata segment. Instead, redefine the stat strings to be ETH_GSTRING_LEN
sizes, like other drivers. This lets us use a single memcpy that does not
leak rodata contents. Additionally adjust indentation to keep checkpatch.pl
happy.

This was found with the future CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE feature.

Ah yeah! And that simplifies the memcpy too, since it can just do it
in one go. New patch on the way...

The better solution is to declare
mesh_stat_strings in in the normal way
