Subject: [PATCH v2] nilfs2: Add pointer check for nilfs_direct_propagate()

In nilfs_direct_propagate(), the printer get from nilfs_direct_get_ptr()
need to be checked to ensure it is not an invalid pointer.

If the pointer value obtained by nilfs_direct_get_ptr() is
NILFS_BMAP_INVALID_PTR, means that the metadata (in this case,
i_bmap in the nilfs_inode_info struct) thatshould  point to the data
block at the buffer head of the argument is corrupted and the data
block is orphaned, meaning that the file system has lost consistency.

Add a value check and return -EINVAL when it is an invalid pointer.

Fixes: 36a580eb489f ("nilfs2: direct block mapping")
