Al,

could you please review about code whether it's doing enough checks to be
called safely from preempt_disabled region?

It's been under review for many weeks and looks good from bpf pov. Essentially
tracing folks need easy way to convert FD to full path name. This feature
request first came in 2015.

Thanks!
