After looking at how kstrndup() is used elsewhere, and after
doing some experimentation, I think the best fix may be to just
remove the "- 1":

    smgr->filename = kstrndup(buf, count, GFP_KERNEL);

The code shouldn't have assumed a "\n", and I don't think the
kernel should be required to do white-space cleanup.

Does this fix seem OK to you?
