Hey,

First of, thanks for looking at the new warnings. We definitely have to
fix those :-)

A couple of lines down we have lstat(path, &st), which will return -1
with errno == ENAMETOOLONG if we go over PATH_MAX, so this does not feel
right, especially that we are not checking for that.

Digging deeper, __igt_lsof_fds() is used only inside __igt_lsof(), which
is the reason for such a high estimate.

It uses char path[PATH_MAX], which is the main contributing component,
but it contains at most strlen("/proc/%d/cwd")+1 where "%d" is
CEILING(LOG_10(INT_MAX)).

Limiting size of path there to sensible upper estimation should make us
fit in PATH_MAX in __igt_lsof_fds (or even less).
