3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Luis Henriques <[email protected]> commit a4e08d001f2e50bb8b3c4eebadcf08e5535f02ee upstream. As ocfs2_fallocate() will invoke __ocfs2_change_file_space() with a NULL as the first parameter (file), it may trigger a NULL pointer dereferrence due to a missing check.
