KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000007]

RIP: 0010:autofs_fill_super+0x47d/0xb50 fs/autofs/inode.c:334

[pid  5095] mount(NULL, "./file1", "autofs", 0, "fd=0x0000000000000000") = -1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory)

[Analysis]
autofs_get_inode() will return null, when memory cannot be allocated.

[Fix]
Confirm that root_inde is not null before using it.
