Thus, to avoid any confusion, I think the kerneldoc for this should explicitly state that this does not add a newline. * Write string to *data without a trailing newline. Update *data to * point at the start of the next string. This shouldn't be an issue, but it makes the behaviour of it plainly obvious to the reader.

Use strscpy() to implement ethtool_puts(). Functionally the same as ethtool_sprintf() when it's used with two arguments or with just "%s" format specifier.
