fs/9p: avoid debug OOPS when reading a long symlink
Reading a symlink longer than the given buffer, a p9_debug use would try to print the link name (not NUL-terminated) using a %s format. Use %.*s instead, and replace the strncpy+strnlen with functionally equivalent strlen+memcpy. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
