[Regression] 2.6.38 ncpfs

Hi Nick

The following commit fb2d5b86aff355a27ebfc132d3c99f4a940cc3fe causes an oops (
when I enter or list a ncpfs mounted volume. The code that you replaced in
dir.c checked that the d_inode pointer was not null before it did a mutex
lock.

For some reason the first time readdir is called for a ncpfs mount point, that
pointer seems to be null/invalid (check the rest of ncp_fill_cache, they
always check before using that pointer.). The BUG_ON that checks if the mutex
is locked causes an Invalid Opcode oops. The attached patch fixes it for me,
I'm not good with the file system layer, worse ncpfs. Can you please apply it
to make ncpfs usable again.
