Subject: [PATCH 06/10] cachefiles, erofs: Fix NULL deref in when cachefiles is not doing ondemand-mode

cachefiles_ondemand_init_object() as called from cachefiles_open_file() and
cachefiles_create_tmpfile() does not check if object->ondemand is set
before dereferencing it, leading to an oops something like:

	RIP: 0010:cachefiles_ondemand_init_object+0x9/0x41
	...
	Call Trace:
	 <TASK>
	 cachefiles_open_file+0xc9/0x187
	 cachefiles_lookup_cookie+0x122/0x2be
	 fscache_cookie_state_machine+0xbe/0x32b
	 fscache_cookie_worker+0x1f/0x2d
	 process_one_work+0x136/0x208
	 process_scheduled_works+0x3a/0x41
	 worker_thread+0x1a2/0x1f6
	 kthread+0xca/0xd2
	 ret_from_fork+0x21/0x33

Fix this by making the calls to cachefiles_ondemand_init_object()
conditional.

Fixes: 3c5ecfe16e76 ("cachefiles: extract ondemand info field from cachefiles_object")
