LGTM. Weird that I didn't see this one with clang 21, which also has the same warnings about __nonstring. But maybe I just didn't run this test?

Definitely could be contributed upstream.

Yeah, I have no idea why clang didn't warn about this one. I wonder if clang doesn't warn if the string ends with an explicit nul?
