The 2 concerns I think are:
1. Fun characters in the path names
2. If exposing the path is appropriate to begin with.
One way I think we can address both is to only expose the path for
anon inodes. Then we have well-known path formats and we don't expose
much about which files a process is accessing since these aren't real
paths.
+ if (is_anon_inode(inode)) {
+ seq_puts(m, "path:\t");
+ seq_file_path(m, file, "\n");
+ seq_putc(m, '\n');
+ }
Interested to hear thoughts on it.

linux-fsdevel is cc'd here. Adding Al Vrio as well. Please let me know
if there are other parties I should include.

No other dependencies for this, so drm-misc-next is good.
