Er... Where could we ever get called with size zero? IOW, the
real question is whether that check makes any sense. If nothing
else, a much more obvious fix (again, assuming there is a call
chain that could have triggered that in the first place), would
be to take that
if (buflen < 1)
goto Elong;
on the very top of __dentry_path(). Note that buflen never
change, so this check could bloody well be handled once - and
earlier. But again, the callers shouldn't be calling it that
way...
