NFS: kswapd must not block in nfs_release_page

See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16056

If other processes are blocked waiting for kswapd to free up some memory so
that they can make progress, then we cannot allow kswapd to block on those
processes.

commit 674b2222920012244ca59978b356b25412a8dcc7
Author: Dan Carpenter <error27@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Tue Jul 13 13:34:59 2010 +0200

nfs: include space for the NUL in root path

In root_nfs_name() it does the following:

if (strlen(buf) + strlen(cp) > NFS_MAXPATHLEN) {
printk(KERN_ERR "Root-NFS: Pathname for remote directory too long.\n");
return -1;
}
sprintf(nfs_export_path, buf, cp);

In the original code if (strlen(buf) + strlen(cp) == NFS_MAXPATHLEN)
then the sprintf() would lead to an overflow. Generally the rest of the
code assumes that the path can have NFS_MAXPATHLEN (1024) characters and
a NUL terminator so the fix is to add space to the nfs_export_path[]
buffer.
