[026/102] CIFS: Fix oops while mounting with prefixpath

From: Greg KH

3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Pavel Shilovsky <piastryyy@xxxxxxxxx>

commit f5bc1e755d23d022bf948904386337fc3e5e29a8 upstream.

commit fec11dd9a0109fe52fd631e5c510778d6cbff6cc caused
a regression when we have already mounted //server/share/a
and want to mount //server/share/a/b.

The problem is that lookup_one_len calls __lookup_hash
with nd pointer as NULL. Then __lookup_hash calls
do_revalidate in the case when dentry exists and we end
up with NULL pointer deference in cifs_d_revalidate:

if (nd->flags & LOOKUP_RCU)
return -ECHILD;

Fix this by checking nd for NULL.
