Subject: [PATCH 5.5 351/399] cifs: fix NULL dereference in match_prepath

From: Ronnie Sahlberg <lsahlber@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit fe1292686333d1dadaf84091f585ee903b9ddb84 ]

RHBZ: 1760879

Fix an oops in match_prepath() by making sure that the prepath string is not
NULL before we pass it into strcmp().

This is similar to other checks we make for example in cifs_root_iget()
