params.mount_opts may come as potentially non-NUL-term string. Userspace
is expected to pass a NUL-term string. Add an extra check to ensure this
holds true. Note that further code utilizes strscpy_pad() so this is just
for proper informing the user of incorrect data being provided.

v2: check length of mount_opts in superblock tuning ioctl (Jan Kara)
Can't plainly return error at strscpy_pad() call site in
ext4_sb_setparams(), that's a void ext4_update_sb_callback.
