The only negative value ever returned by prepend_path() is -ENAMETOOLONG and callers can recognize that situation (overflow) by looking at the sign of buflen. Lift that into the callers; we already have the same logics (buf if buflen is non-negative, ERR_PTR(-ENAMETOOLONG) otherwise) in several places and that'll become a new primitive several commits down the road. Make prepend_path() return 0 instead of -ENAMETOOLONG. That makes for saner calling conventions (0/1/2/3/-ENAMETOOLONG is obnoxious) and callers actually get simpler, especially once the aforementioned primitive gets added. In prepend_path() itself we switch prepending the / (in case of empty path) to use of prepend() - no need to open-code that, compiler will do the right thing. It's exactly the same logics as in __dentry_path().
