[PATCH] afs: Fix dynamic root getattr

[David Howells]

Hi Linus,

Could you apply this please?  It fixes an oops inadvertently introduced by
the fix to make afs_getattr() update the status from the server if it was
no longer valid.

Thanks,
David

afs: Fix dynamic root getattr

The recent patch to make afs_getattr consult the server didn't account for
the pseudo-inodes employed by the dynamic root-type afs superblock not
having a volume or a server to access, and thus an oops occurs if such a
directory is stat'd.

Fix this by checking to see if the vnode->volume pointer actually points
anywhere before following it in afs_getattr().

This can be tested by stat'ing a directory in /afs.  It may be sufficient
just to do "ls /afs" and the oops looks something like:

        BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020
        ...
        RIP: 0010:afs_getattr+0x8b/0x14b
        ...
        Call Trace:
         <TASK>
         vfs_statx+0x79/0xf5
         vfs_fstatat+0x49/0x62
