[PATCH] check for null vfsmount in dentry_open() 

Make sure no-one calls dentry_open with a NULL vfsmount argument and crap
out with a stacktrace otherwise.  A NULL file->f_vfsmnt has always been
problematic, but with the per-mount r/o tracking we can't accept anymore
at all.

[AV] the last place that passed NULL had been eliminated by the previous
patch (reiserfs xattr stuff)
