ocfs2: Don't walk off the end of fast symlinks.
commit 1fc8a117865b54590acd773a55fbac9221b018f0 upstream. ocfs2 fast symlinks are NUL terminated strings stored inline in the inode data area. However, disk corruption or a local attacker could, in theory, remove that NUL. Because we're using strlen() (my fault, introduced in a731d1 when removing vfs_follow_link()), we could walk off the end of that string.
