[PATCH 5.15 01/72] fscache_cookie_enabled: check cookie is valid before accessing it

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

commit 0dc54bd4d6e03be1f0b678c4297170b79f1a44ab upstream.

fscache_cookie_enabled() could be called on NULL cookies and cause a
null pointer dereference when accessing cookie flags: just make sure
the cookie is valid first
