Jia He 36594b317c vsprintf: Prevent crash when dereferencing invalid pointers for %pD
Commit 3e5903eb9c ("vsprintf: Prevent crash when dereferencing invalid
pointers") prevents most crash except for %pD.
There is an additional pointer dereferencing before dentry_name.

At least, vma->file can be NULL and be passed to printk %pD in
print_bad_pte, which can cause crash.

This patch fixes it with introducing a new file_dentry_name.

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.
