  locked down the path checks in check_reduced_name[_with_privilege]() to 
prevent unintended access via wide links.
  
  The new checks do not correctly treat a corner case though: the case of
  the share path being "/". (Important e.g. for using the glusterfs VFS
  module.)
  
  In this case all operations after tree connect get ACCESS_DENIED.
