While fuzzing, the name marked by FDT_BEGIN_NODE sometimes extends beyond
the struct block area, Causing a heap-overflow.

Since `maxlen` is an unsigned integer representing the length of name,
It can be negative, So it overflows to large numbers, Causing strnlen()
to overflow.

So we can just change the type of maxlen to signed and check if it's negative.
