PATCH 1/1 block/rnbd-srv: Check for unlikely string overflow

Since "dev_search_path" can technically be as large as PATH_MAX, there was a risk of truncation when copying it and a second string into "full_path" since it was also PATH_MAX sized. The W=1 builds were reporting this warning:

drivers/block/rnbd/rnbd-srv.c: In function 'process_msg_open.isra':

      |                          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To fix this, unconditionally check for truncation (as was already done for the case where "%SESSNAME%" was present).
