Array of MAX_NESTED_LINKS + 1 elements put into nameidata;
what used to be a local array in link_path_walk() occupies
entries 1 .. MAX_NESTED_LINKS in it, link and cookie from
the trailing symlink handling loops - entry 0.

This is _not_ the final arrangement; just an easily verified
incremental step.

This looks wrong.  'last'  used to be dependent on nd->depth, now it isn't.

Three patches later we have:

+const char *get_link(struct nameidata *nd)
 {
-	struct dentry *dentry = link->dentry;
+	struct saved *last = nd->stack + nd->depth;
+	struct dentry *dentry = nd->link.dentry;
 	struct inode *inode = dentry->d_inode;

and 

 static int link_path_walk(const char *name, struct nameidata *nd)
 {
-	struct saved *last = nd->stack;
 	int err;

....
-			last->link = nd->link;
-			s = get_link(&last->link, nd, &last->cookie);
+			s = get_link(nd);


so the nd->depth offset is restored in get_link() so the next result appears
correct, but the intermediate states appear to be wrong.

On the entry to link_path_walk() we have nd->depth == 0.

And nd->depth and last are changed in sync.
