How about that slightly modified d_path()?

char*
full_d_path( struct dentry *dentry,
struct vfsmount *vfsmnt,
char *buf, int buflen ) {
char *res;
struct vfsmount *rootmnt;
struct dentry *root;
read_lock(&current->fs->lock);
rootmnt = mntget(current->fs->rootmnt);
read_unlock(&current->fs->lock);

while( rootmnt!=rootmnt->mnt_parent ) {
struct vfsmount *h=mntget( rootmnt->mnt_parent );
mntput( rootmnt );
rootmnt=h;
}

root = dget(rootmnt->mnt_root);

spin_lock(&dcache_lock);
res = __d_path(dentry, vfsmnt, root, rootmnt, buf, buflen);
spin_unlock(&dcache_lock);

dput(root);
mntput(rootmnt);
return res;
}
