Using gcc-7 with UBSAN enabled, we get this false-positive warning:

net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_core.c: In function 'ip_set_sockfn_get':
net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_core.c:1998:3: error: 'strncpy' writing 32 bytes 
into a region of size 2 overflows the destination [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
   strncpy(req_get->set.name, set ? set->name : "",
   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    sizeof(req_get->set.name));
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This seems completely bogus, and I could not find a nice workaround.
To work around it in a less elegant way, I change the ?: operator
into an if()/else() construct.
