When ceph_mdsc_build_path is handed a positive dentry, it will return a
zero-length path string with the base set to that dentry. This is not
what we want. Always include at least one path component in the string.

I found this while testing my asynchronous unlink patches. We have
to do the unlink in this case without the parent being locked, and
that showed that we got a bogus path built in this case.

This seems to work correctly, but it's a little unclear whether the
existing behavior is desirable in some cases. Is this the right thing
to do here?
