Maybe you want to check if procfs is a valid handle before using it.

linux/limits.h defined MAX_PATH as well, though as 4096. Maybe use that
definition? If you want to make it dynamic you could use fpathconf(fd,
_PC_PATH_MAX) but one could argue that is over engineering :)

Thanks for the fix. Anyway just nitpicking.
