After the behavior of '%pD' is changed to print the full path of file,
the log printing can be simplified.

Given the space with proper length would be allocated in vprintk_store(),
it is worthy of dropping kmalloc()/kfree() to avoid additional space
allocation. The error case is well handled in d_path_unsafe(), the error
string would be copied in '%pD' buffer, no need to additionally handle
IS_ERR().
