There is a window after calling drm_master_release, and before a file is freed, where drm_file can have is_master set to true, but both the drm_file and drm_device have no master. This could result in wrongly approving permissions in drm_is_current_master_locked. Add a check that fpriv->master is non-NULl to guard against this scenario.
