Where do I begin?
	* getname_kernel() is there for purpose
	* so's kern_path(), damnit

	* ... and this is utter bollocks - userland doesn't
have to have procfs mounted anywhere; it doesn't have to
have it mounted on /proc; it can bloody well bind a symlink
to anywhere and anythin on top of /proc/self even if its
has procfs mounted there.

	This is fundamentally wrong; nothing in the kernel
(bpf very much included) has any business assuming anything
about what's mounted where.  And while we are at it,
how deep on kernel stack can that thing be called?
Because pathname resolution can bring all kinds of interesting
crap into the game - consider e.g. NFS4 referral traversal.
And it can occur - see above about the lack of warranties
that your pathwalk will go to procfs and will remain there.
