Subject: [PATCH] ceph: fix race in concurrent __ceph_remove_cap invocations

A NULL pointer dereference may occur in __ceph_remove_cap with some of the
callbacks used in ceph_iterate_session_caps, namely trim_caps_cb and
remove_session_caps_cb.  These aren't protected against the concurrent
execution of __ceph_remove_cap.

Since the callers of this function hold the i_ceph_lock, the fix is simply
a matter of returning immediately if caps->ci is NULL.

Based on a patch from Jeff Layton.
