ecryptfs_d_release() first dereferences a pointer (via
ecryptfs_dentry_to_lower()) and then afterwards checks to see if the
pointer it just dereferenced is NULL (via
ecryptfs_dentry_to_private()). This patch moves all of the work done
on the dereferenced pointer inside a block governed by the condition
that the pointer is non-NULL.
