d_path() returns -ENAMETOOLONG if buffer length is not enough.
But there is no error handling for it in print_vma() which calls
d_path() with not enough buffer (We can easily make segfault program
which has longer path than 128bytes).
This patch allocates enough buffer for d_path() dynamically.
audit_log_d_path() is doing sililar thing. So I just stole from it.
