From: Markus Armbruster <arm...@redhat.com> readlink() returns the number of bytes written to the buffer, and it doesn't write a terminating null byte. do_readlink() writes it itself. Overruns the buffer when readlink() filled it completely.
Fix by reserving space for the null byte when calling readlink(), like we do elsewhere.
