When renaming a mapped device validate the length of the new name.

The rename ioctl accepted any correctly-terminated string enclosed
within the data passed from userspace.  The other ioctls enforce a
size limit of DM_NAME_LEN.  If the name is changed and becomes longer
than that, the device can no longer be addressed by name.

Fix it by properly checking for device name length (including
terminating zero).
