hfsplus: fix NULL dereference in hfsplus_lookup()
An HFS+ filesystem can be mounted read-only without having a metadata directory, which is needed to support hardlinks. But if the catalog data is corrupted, a directory lookup may still find dentries claiming to be hardlinks. hfsplus_lookup() does check that ->hidden_dir is not NULL in such a situation, but mistakenly does so after dereferencing it for the first time. Reorder this check to prevent a crash. This happens when looking up corrupted catalog data (dentry) on a filesystem with no metadata directory (this could only ever happen on a read-only mount). Wen Xu sent the replication steps in detail to the fsdevel list: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200297 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180712215344.q44dyrhymm4ajkao@eaf Signed-off-by: Ernesto A.
