ext4: avoid utf8_strncasecmp() with unstable name
If the dentry name passed to ->d_compare() fits in dentry::d_iname, then it may be concurrently modified by a rename. This can cause undefined behavior (possibly out-of-bounds memory accesses or crashes) in utf8_strncasecmp(), since fs/unicode/ isn't written to handle strings that may be concurrently modified. Fix this by first copying the filename to a stack buffer if needed. This way we get a stable snapshot of the filename.
