statmount: let unset strings be empty
commit e52e97f09fb66fd868260d05bd6b74a9a3db39ee upstream.
Just like it's normal for unset values to be zero, unset strings should be
empty instead of containing random values.
It seems to be a typical mistake that the mask returned by statmount is not
checked, which can result in various bugs.
With this fix, these bugs are prevented, since it is highly likely that
userspace would just want to turn the missing mask case into an empty
string anyway (most of the recently found cases are of this type).
