Nikolay Borisov 315bed43fe btrfs: handle error of get_old_root
In btrfs_search_old_slot get_old_root is always used with the assumption
it cannot fail. However, this is not true in rare circumstance it can
fail and return null. This will lead to null point dereference when the
header is read. Fix this by checking the return value and properly
handling NULL by setting ret to -EIO and returning gracefully.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
