ocfs2: Don't walk off the end of fast symlinks.
ocfs2 fast symlinks are NUL terminated strings stored inline in the inode data area. However, disk corruption or a local attacker could, in theory, remove that NUL. Because we're using strlen() (my fault, introduced in a731d1 when removing vfs_follow_link()), we could walk off the end of that string.
