FS-Cache: fix dereference of NULL user_key_payload
When the file /proc/fs/fscache/objects (available with CONFIG_FSCACHE_OBJECT_LIST=y) is opened, we request a user key with description "fscache:objlist", then access its payload. However, a revoked key has a NULL payload, and we failed to check for this. request_key() *does* skip revoked keys, but there is still a window where the key can be revoked before we access its payload. Fix it by checking for a NULL payload, treating it like a key which was already revoked at the time it was requested.
