[PATCH v1] seq_file: convert mangle_path() to use string_escape_str()

From: Andy Shevchenko
Date: Wed Jan 09 2019 - 10:40:28 EST


Since string_escape_str() does not support overlapping buffer first we check if
there is enough room in the buffer and then update a path. The side effect of
this change is in case of failure the buffer is left unchanged.
