staging: lustre: add container_of_safe()
Luster has a container_of0() function which is similar to container_of() but passes an IS_ERR_OR_NULL() pointer through unchanged. This could be generally useful: bcache at last has a similar function. Naming is hard, but the precedent set by hlist_entry_safe() suggests a _safe suffix might be most consistent. So add container_of_safe() to kernel.h, and replace all occurrences of container_of0() with one of - list_first_entry, list_next_entry, when that is a better fit, - container_of(), when the pointer is used as a validpointer in surrounding code, - container_of_safe() when there is no obviously better alternative.
