This can cause undefined behavior (possibly out-of-bounds memory accesses or crashes) in utf8_strncasecmp(), since fs/unicode/ isn't written to handle strings that may be concurrently modified. Fix this by first copying the filename to a stack buffer if needed. This way we get a stable snapshot of the filename.

I've grabbed f874fa1c7c79 ("f2fs: split f2fs_d_compare() from f2fs_match_name()") as a dependency and queued both for 5.7 and 5.4. -- Thanks, Sasha
