CIFS: Fix oops while mounting with prefixpath
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.
