cifs: prevent NULL pointer dereference in UTF16 conversion

Browse Source 
commit 70bccd9855dae56942f2b18a08ba137bb54093a0 upstream.

There can be a NULL pointer dereference bug here. NULL is passed to
__cifs_sfu_make_node without checks, which passes it unchecked to
cifs_strndup_to_utf16, which in turn passes it to
cifs_local_to_utf16_bytes where '*from' is dereferenced, causing a crash.

This patch adds a check for NULL 'src' in cifs_strndup_to_utf16 and
returns NULL early to prevent dereferencing NULL pointer.
