This code was broken by commit 3f05d693 ("malloc: Use overflow checking primitives where we do complex allocations"), which added overflow checking in many areas. The problem here is that the changes update the local variable sz, which was already in use and which was not updated before the change. So the code using sz was getting a different value of than it would have previously for the same UDF image. This causes the logic getting the destination of the symlink to not realize that its gotten the full destination, but keeps trying to read past the end of the destination. The bytes after the end are generally NULL padding bytes, but that's not a valid component type (ECMA-167 14.16.1.1). So grub_udf_read_symlink branches to error logic, returning NULL, instead of the symlink destination path.
The result of this bug is that the UDF filesystem tests were failing in the symlink test with the grub-fstest error message: grub-fstest: error: cannot open `(loop0)/sym': invalid symlink. This change stores the result of doubling sz in another local variable s, so as not to modify sz. Also remove unnecessary grub_add, which increased the output by 1, persumably to account for a NULL byte. This isn't needed because an output buffer of size twice sz is already guaranteed to be more than enough to contain the path components converted to UTF-8. The value of sz contains at least 4 bytes for the path component header (ECMA-167 14.16.1), which means that 2*4 bytes are allocated but will not be used for UTF-8 characters, so the NULL byte is accounted for.
