nfs: use file_dentry()
NFS may be used as lower layer of overlayfs and accessing f_path.dentry can lead to a crash. Fix by replacing direct access of file->f_path.dentry with the file_dentry() accessor, which will always return a native object. Fixes: 4bacc9c9234c ("overlayfs: Make f_path always point to the overlay and f_inode to the underlay") Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com> Tested-by: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@suse.com> Acked-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v4.2 Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
