Bump up the buffer to PATH_MAX which is the limit and account for all of
the possible NUL and separators that could lead to exceeding the
allocated buffer sizes.

Daniel, are you going to pick up this one or should I?

Yes, you can pick it

There is also a tmon patch from Florian that seems to be pending.
Should I take care of it?

I'm not sure which patch you are referring but if it is the pthread compilation issue, it should be already applied for v5.20-rc1 from the thermal pull request
