Make free_ipath() behave like most other freeing functions in the
kernel and gracefully do nothing when passed a NULL pointer.
Besides this making the bahaviour consistent with functions such as
kfree(), vfree(), btrfs_free_path() etc etc, it also fixes a real NULL
deref issue in fs/btrfs/ioctl.c::btrfs_ioctl_ino_to_path(). In that
function we have this code:
...
ipath = init_ipath(size, root, path);
if (IS_ERR(ipath)) {
ret = PTR_ERR(ipath);
ipath = NULL;
goto out;
}
...
out:
btrfs_free_path(path);
free_ipath(ipath);
...
If we ever take the true branch of that 'if' statement we'll end up
passing a NULL pointer to free_ipath() which will subsequently
dereference it and we'll go "Boom" :-(
This patch will avoid that.
