Subject: [PATCH] cifs: Fix NULL pointer dereference of devname

There is a NULL pointer dereference of devname in strspn()

The oops looks something like:

  CIFS: Attempting to mount (null)
  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000
  ...
  RIP: 0010:strspn+0x0/0x50
  ...
  Call Trace:
   ? cifs_parse_mount_options+0x222/0x1710 [cifs]
   ? cifs_get_volume_info+0x2f/0x80 [cifs]
   cifs_setup_volume_info+0x20/0x190 [cifs]

   do_syscall_64+0x65/0x220
   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe

Fix this by adding a NULL check on devname in cifs_parse_devname()
