9p: use file_dentry()
commit b403f0e37a11f84f7ceaf40b0075499e5bcfd220 upstream.
v9fs may be used as lower layer of overlayfs and accessing f_path.dentry
can lead to a crash. In this case it's a NULL pointer dereference in
p9_fid_create().
Fix by replacing direct access of file->f_path.dentry with the
file_dentry() accessor, which will always return a native object.
