Previously, some sanity check have been done in dump_mapping() before the print facility parsing '%pd' though, it's still possible to run into an invalid dentry.d_name.name.
Since dump_mapping() only needs to dump the filename only, retrieve it by itself in a safer way to prevent an unnecessary crash.
Note that either retrieving the filename with '%pd' or strncpy_from_kernel_nofault(), the filename could be unreliable.
