Subject: [PATCH] hfs: check return value before accessing fd in hfs_brec_find()

In the event that hfs_brec_keylen() fails, an error is returned to the
caller of __hfs_brec_find() and the struct hfs_find_data is not
initialized.

The result needs to be checked before attempting to read any fields from
fd.
