The third argument is the maximum number of bytes to concatenate from the
second argument ("/start").  Though it's unlikely that we'll ever find anything
in /sys/block approaching 255 characters, we might as well guard against stack
corruption:

	if (strlen(path) > SYSFS_PATH_LEN - strlen("/start") - 1)
		return 0;
	strcat(path, "/start");

Oh, I guess coverity is complaining about this too.

Though FWIW, "find /sys | while read f; do echo "$f" | wc -c; done | sort -g |
tail -n 5" spits out "133" as the longest sysfs path ever.  I guess that could
be much longer on some multi-node NUMA box or whatever.

<shrug> /me codes up a fix, tosses it on the patch pile.
