Subject: [PATCH 4.19 10/32] cifs: potential buffer overflow in handling symlinks

From: Harshit Mogalapalli <harshit.m.mogalapalli@...cle.com>

[ Upstream commit 64c4a37ac04eeb43c42d272f6e6c8c12bfcf4304 ]

Smatch printed a warning:
	arch/x86/crypto/poly1305_glue.c:198 poly1305_update_arch() error:
	__memcpy() 'dctx->buf' too small (16 vs u32max)

It's caused because Smatch marks 'link_len' as untrusted since it comes
from sscanf(). Add a check to ensure that 'link_len' is not larger than
the size of the 'link_str' buffer.

Fixes: c69c1b6eaea1 ("cifs: implement CIFSParseMFSymlink()")
