[Qemu-stable] [PATCH 14/25] 9pfs: fix potential segfault during walk

[Michael Roth]

From: Greg Kurz <address@hidden>

If the call to fid_to_qid() returns an error, we will call v9fs_path_free()
on uninitialized paths.

It is a regression introduced by the following commit:

56f101ecce0e 9pfs: handle walk of ".." in the root directory

Let's fix this by initializing dpath and path before calling fid_to_qid().
