[PATCH] cachefiles: Fix oops in trace_cachefiles_mark_buried due to NULL object

From: David Howells

From: Dave Wysochanski <dwysocha@xxxxxxxxxx>

In cachefiles_mark_object_buried, the dentry in question may
not have an owner, and thus our cachefiles_object pointer
may be NULL when calling the tracepoint, in which case we
will also not have a valid debug_id to print in the tracepoint.
Check for NULL object in the tracepoint and if so, just set
debug_id to MAX_UINT as was done in 2908f5e101e3.

This fixes the following oops:

FS-Cache: Cache "mycache" added (type cachefiles)
CacheFiles: File cache on vdc registered
...
Workqueue: fscache_object fscache_object_work_func [fscache]
RIP: 0010:trace_event_raw_event_cachefiles_mark_buried+0x4e/0xa0 [cachefiles]
....
