[TOMOYO #14 (mmotm 2008-12-30-16-05) 03/10] Introduce d_realpath().

From: Tetsuo Handa
Date: Thu Jan 01 2009 - 00:22:00 EST


To remove factors that make pathname based access control difficult
(e.g. symbolic links, "..", "//", chroot() etc.), a variant of d_path()
which traverses up to the root of the namespace is needed.

This patch introduces d_realpath(), a variant of d_path().
While d_path() stops traversing at current->fs->root,
d_realpath() doesn't stop traversiong at current->fs->root.

Three differences compared to d_path().
(1) Ignores current process's root directory.
(2) Trailing '/' is added if the pathname refers to a directory.
(3) /proc/PID/ is represented as /proc/self/ if PID equals current->tgid.
