  No valid path returned by getcwd would fit into 1 byte, so reject the
size early and return NULL with errno set to ERANGE.  This change is
prompted by CVE-2021-3999, which describes a single byte buffer
underflow and overflow when all of the following conditions are met:

- The buffer size (i.e. the second argument of getcwd) is 1 byte
- The current working directory is too long
- '/' is also mounted on the current working directory

Sequence of events:

- In sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getcwd.c, the syscall returns ENAMETOOLONG
  because the linux kernel checks for name length before it checks
  buffer size

- The code falls back to the generic getcwd in sysdeps/posix

- In the generic func, the buf[0] is set to '\0' on line 250

- this while loop on line 262 is bypassed:

    while (!(thisdev == rootdev && thisino == rootino))

  since the rootfs (/) is bind mounted onto the directory and the flow
  goes on to line 449, where it puts a '/' in the byte before the
  buffer.

- Finally on line 458, it moves 2 bytes (the underflowed byte and the
  '\0') to the buf[0] and buf[1], resulting in a 1 byte buffer overflow.

- buf is returned on line 469 and errno is not set.

This resolves BZ #28769.

Look good with just two fixed below for CMSG_DATA and a couple of comments.
Ok with the fixes, the comments would be good but it is a blocker.

No need since it is a Linux only test and PATH_MAX is always defined.

Maybe zero-initialize both first to avoid the memset below?

I think CMSG_DATA does not guarantee the alignment, so I think it would be 
safe to use memcpy here:

  memcpy (CMSG_DATA (cmsg), &fd, sizeof (fd));

Ok.

Maybe also zero-initialize here.

Same as before, I think you will need to copy to a temporary using memcpy.

Maybe define the size as:

  /* The path is the form /proc/%ld/setgroups.  */
  char map_path[sizeof("/proc/setgroups") + INT_STRLEN_BOUND (long int)];

Ahh, I didn't actually need it anyway, leftover from a previous
