Usage of C's strncpy() function should be in most cases avoided as when
target buffer does not have enough space this function does not fill
nul-term byte. (Anyway, I do not know if U-Boot implements strncpy()
according to C standard with this trap or not)

But if you already have length of string then you should use memcpy().
