    NFSD: test d_inode before fh_compose()
    
    After 2f9092e1020246168b1309b35e085ecd7ff9ff72 "Fix i_mutex vs. readdir
    handling in nfsd" (and 14f7dd63 "Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code"),
    an entry may be removed between the first mutex_unlock and the second
    mutex_lock. In this case, lookup_one_len() in compose_entry_fh() will
    return a negative dentry.
    It is better to test inode (positive/negative) BEFORE fh_compose().
