New Revision: 311284
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/311284

Log:
  Fix bug that would result in a kernel crash in some cases involving
  a symlink and an autofs mount request.  The crash was caused by namei()
  calling bcopy() with a negative length, caused by numeric underflow:
  in lookup(), in the relookup path, the ni_pathlen was decremented too
  many times.  The bug was introduced in r296715.
  
  Big thanks to Alex Deiter for his help with debugging this.
