[PATCH 4/8] perf machine: Check snprintf truncation in machines__findnew()

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org>]

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

The guestmount path is built with snprintf() into a PATH_MAX buffer
without checking the return value.  If symbol_conf.guestmount is long
enough to cause truncation, the truncated path could match a different
directory, causing the wrong guest to be associated with the pid.

Check for truncation and bail out early.

Fixes: a1645ce12adb ("perf: 'perf kvm' tool for monitoring guest performance from host")
