Syzbot reported a null-ptr-deref bug:

If the MFT record of ntfs inode is not a base record, inode->i_op can be NULL. And a null-ptr-deref may happen:
ntfs_lookup() dir_search_u() # inode->i_op is set to NULL d_splice_alias() __d_add() d_flags_for_inode() # inode->i_op->get_link null-ptr-deref
Fix this by adding a Check on inode->i_op before calling the d_splice_alias() function.
