According to commit
ac369cdd9448("vfs: parse: deal with zero length string value"),
kernel will sets the param->string to null pointer in
vfs_parse_fs_string() if fs string has zero length.
Yet the problem is that, hugetlbfs_parse_param() will
dereference the param->string, without checking whether it
is a null pointer. To be more specific, if hugetlbfs_parse_param()
parses an illegal mount parameter, such as "size=,", kernel will
constructs struct fs_parameter with null pointer in
vfs_parse_fs_string(), then passes this struct fs_parameter to
hugetlbfs_parse_param(), which triggers the above
null-ptr-deref bug.
This patch solves it by adding sanity check on param->string
in hugetlbfs_parse_param().
