Using seq_buf_set_overflow() would leave the bytes between "len" and "size" untouched, so if seq_buf_str() is used on an overflowed seq_buf, those bytes may be exposed. For any paths that don't claim partially written bytes, by setting "len = size" before calling seq_buf_set_overflow(), wipe the unclaimed bytes. The seq_buf_puts() and related APIs already claim those bytes now, so only the unclaimed cases remain. A specific example of this was seq_buf_path() which uses d_path() and would write to the tail before discovering it was out of space, and would correctly mark a seq_buf as overflowed, but the path fragment would be left over.
Clear from len to the end of the buffer in seq_buf_set_overflow(), which every overflow goes through, including seq_buf_commit() with a negative count. Add a test that fills a seq_buf, leaves it too little room for a path, and checks that nothing of the path is left in the buffer. The tests run before anything writable is mounted, so it takes its file from shmem. Tests passed under qemu on ARCH=x86_64 with GCC 16.2.0 and CONFIG_KASAN=y, and on big-endian ARCH=s390 with GCC s390x-linux-gnu 16.1.0.
