But d_namlen is not populated by synth_direntry, so this will lead to
a bug too. Idea is that qemu_dirent_dup handles real dirents and
simulated (underpopulated) dirents.

Also Linux does not have d_namlen AFAIK, thus this code will not provide
any speed up in most cases (and always fallback to strlen), unlike if we
use d_reclen.

Also, I m not sure if _D_EXACT_NAMLEN is defined on all systems, so this
needs ifdefs too.

If you don't like d_reclen speed ups, we can always just use most portable
strlen method.
