From: Minchan Kim <minchan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit ad8d869343ae4a07a2038a4ca923f699308c8323 upstream. kernfs_remove supported NULL kernfs_node param to bail out but revent per-fs lock change introduced regression that dereferencing the param without NULL check so kernel goes crash. This patch checks the NULL kernfs_node in kernfs_remove and if so, just return. Quote from bug report by Jirka ``` The bug is triggered by running NAS Parallel benchmark suite on SuperMicro servers with 2x Xeon(R) Gold 6126 CPU.
