Looking at the stack backtrace this is happening as part of creating a
file or a device node.  The dentry that is passed in most likely
comes from d_alloc_parallel.  So we have d_inode == NULL.

I want to suggest doing the very simple fix:

-	if (sb->s_magic == PROC_SUPER_MAGIC && *pos == '/') {
+	if (sb->s_magic == PROC_SUPER_MAGIC && *pos == '/' && denty->d_inode) {

But I don't know if there are any other security hooks early in lookup,
that could be called for an already existing dentry.

So it looks like we need a version proc_pid_ns that works for a dentry,
or a superblock.

Alex do you think you can code up an patch against my proc-next branch
to fix this?
