Amir Goldstein d905fdaaa7 xfs: use the common helper uuid_is_null()
Use the common helper uuid_is_null() and remove the xfs specific
helper uuid_is_nil().

The common helper does not check for the NULL pointer value as
xfs helper did, but xfs code never calls the helper with a pointer
that can be NULL.

Conform comments and warning strings to use the term 'null uuid'
instead of 'nil uuid', because this is the terminology used by
lib/uuid.c and its users. It is also the terminology used in
userspace by libuuid and xfsprogs.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
