[BusyBox] patch: util-linux/mount.c: long filenames in /etc/fstab

[Kevin Hilman]

This patch fixes a problem if there are long pathnames in /etc/fstab.

The 'device' buffer is xmalloc'd using PATH_MAX, but after
simplify_path(), it nolonger points to the xmalloc'd region, instead,
it's pointing to a strdup'd region.

This is fine until later on when this is done:

			strcpy(device, m->mnt_fsname);

Which, if m->mnt_fsname is long enough, you get some nice memory
corruption.
