If 'file' cannot be allocated due to an out of memory
situation, NULL is dereferenced.
Variables file and dentry are not needed at all.
So let's eliminate them.
When debugging this patch also avoids a misleading message
"cannot find next direntry, error %d" in case of an out of
memory situation. It is sufficent to write
"%s: Error, no memory for malloc!\n" in this case.
