Subject: [PATCH 3.18 10/29] PM / hibernate: Fix oops at snapshot_write()

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@...ove.SAKURA.ne.jp>

commit fc14eebfc20854a38fd9f1d93a42b1783dad4d17 upstream.

syzbot is reporting NULL pointer dereference at snapshot_write() [1].
This is because data->handle is zero-cleared by ioctl(SNAPSHOT_FREE).
Fix this by checking data_of(data->handle) != NULL before using it.
