https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68991

The expected logic of proc_map_files_get_link() is either to return 0 and
initialize 'path' or return an error and leave 'path' uninitialized. By the time
dname_to_vma_addr() returns 0 the corresponding vma may have already be gone. In
this case the path is not initialized but the return value is still 0. This
results in 'general protection fault' inside d_path().

Steps to reproduce:
CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE=y

fd = open(...);
while (1) {
	mmap(fd, ...);
	munmap(fd, ...);
}

ls -la /proc/$PID/map_files
