[PATCH] Protect against NFS requests to create symlinks bigger than one page

Such a request would cause the nul terminator to be written
to some other page, and cause havoc.

Also rearrange two tests to avoid the possibility of testing the byte
just past the end of a buffer - doing so can causes an oops with appropriate
kernel-debug config options
