[PATCH 4.4 40/68] 9p: use file_dentry()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit b403f0e37a11f84f7ceaf40b0075499e5bcfd220 upstream.

v9fs may be used as lower layer of overlayfs and accessing f_path.dentry
can lead to a crash.  In this case it's a NULL pointer dereference in
p9_fid_create().

Fix by replacing direct access of file->f_path.dentry with the
file_dentry() accessor, which will always return a native object.
