The produced warn is ugly as sin:\, for example for that bad size:
[   51.433206] VFS_WARN_ON_INODE(__builtin_choose_expr((sizeof(int) ==
sizeof(*(8 ? ((void *)((long)(__builtin_strlen(link)) * 0l)) : (int
*)8))), __builtin_strlen(link), __fortify_strlen(link)) != linklen)
failed for inode ff32f7c350c8aec8

maybe there is a way to work it around, the code is literally lifted
out of mmdebug.h so they presumably have the same problem

apart from that the assert in may_open is backwards, the code normally
is not reached.

anyhow I expect to send a v2, but will wait for feedback before I do
