Qu Wenruo 62ab2cc04d btrfs: sysfs: fix NULL pointer dereference at btrfs_sysfs_del_qgroups()
[BUG]
Unmounting a btrfs filesystem with quota disabled will cause the
following NULL pointer dereference:

  BTRFS info (device dm-5): has skinny extents
  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018
  #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
  #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page

  ---[ end trace 37b7adca5c1d5c5d ]---

[CAUSE]
Commit 079ad2fb4b ("kobject: Avoid premature parent object freeing in
kobject_cleanup()") changed kobject_del() that it no longer accepts NULL
pointer.

Before that commit, kobject_del() and kobject_put() all accept NULL
pointers and just ignore such NULL pointers.

But that mentioned commit needs to access the parent node, killing the
old NULL pointer behavior.

Unfortunately btrfs is relying on that hidden feature thus we will
trigger such NULL pointer dereference.

[FIX]
Instead of just saving several lines, do proper fs_info->qgroups_kobj
check before calling kobject_del() and kobject_put().

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
