Subject: [13/26] hfs: add sanity check for file name length

3.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit bc5b8a9003132ae44559edd63a1623b7b99dfb68 upstream.

On a corrupted file system the ->len field could be wrong leading to
a buffer overflow.
