[PATCH 4/5] fs/dcache: Use read_word_at_a_time() in dentry_string_cmp()

[Andrey Ryabinin]

dentry_string_cmp() performs the word-at-a-time reads from 'cs' and may
read slightly more than it was requested in kmallac(). Normally this
would make KASAN to report out-of-bounds access, but this was workarounded
by commit df4c0e36f1b1 ("fs: dcache: manually unpoison dname after
allocation to shut up kasan's reports").

This workaround is not perfect, since it allows out-of-bounds access
to dentry's name for all the code, not just in dentry_string_cmp().

So it would be better to use read_word_at_a_time() instead and
revert commit df4c0e36f1b1.
