On failure to return a pathname from ima_d_path(), a pointer to dname is returned, which is subsequently used in the IMA measurement list, the IMA audit records, and other audit logging. Saving the pointer to dname for later use has the potential to race with rename. Intead of returning a pointer to dname on failure, this patch returns a pointer to a copy of the filename.
