ceph: fix null pointer deref on anon root dentry release

When we release a root dentry, particularly after a splice, the parent
(actually our) inode was evaluating to NULL and was getting dereferenced
by ceph_snap().  This is reproduced by something as simple as

 mount -t ceph monhost:/a/b mnt
 mount -t ceph monhost:/a mnt2
 ls mnt2

A splice_dentry() would kill the old 'b' inode's root dentry, and we'd
crash while releasing it.

Fix by checking for both the ROOT and NULL cases explicitly.  We only need
to invalidate the parent dir when we have a correct parent to invalidate.
