Previously, the specifier '%pD' is for printing dentry name of struct

As suggested by Linus [1]:

A dentry has a parent, but at the same time, a dentry really does
inherently have "one name" (and given just the dentry pointers, you
can't show mount-related parenthood, so in many ways the "show just
one name" makes sense for "%pd" in ways it doesn't necessarily for
"%pD"). But while a dentry arguably has that "one primary component",
a _file_ is certainly not exclusively about that last component.

Hence change the behavior of '%pD' to print the full path of that file.

If someone invokes snprintf() with small but positive space,
prepend_name_with_len() moves or truncates the string partially. More
than that, kasprintf() will pass NULL @buf and @end as the parameters,
and @end - @buf can be negative in some case. Hence make it return at
the very beginning with false in these cases.

Precision is never going to be used with %p (or any of its kernel
extensions) if -Wformat is turned on.
