Subject[PATCH][next] afs: fix a dereference on pointer cell before cell is null checked
Date
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Currently the assignment of debug_id dereferences pointer cell before
cell has been null checked. Fix this by removing debug_id and use
cell->debug_id after cell has been null checked.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check")
Fixes: dca54a7bbb8c ("afs: Add tracing for cell refcount and active user count")
