Or perhaps this (not even compile tested) patch would be better?

autofs - fix slab out of bounds read in getname_kernel()

From: Ian Kent <raven@xxxxxxxxxx>

The autofs subsystem does not check that the "path" parameter is
present for all cases where it is required when it is passed in
via the "param" struct.

In particular it isn't checked for the AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_OPENMOUNT_CMD
ioctl command.

To solve it, modify validate_dev_ioctl() function to check that a
path has been provided for ioctl commands that require it.
