eCryptfs: file->private_data is always valid
When accessing the lower_file pointer located in private_data of eCryptfs files, there is no need to check to see if the private_data pointer has been initialized to a non-NULL value. The file->private_data and file->private_data->lower_file pointers are always initialized to non-NULL values in ecryptfs_open(). This change quiets a Smatch warning: CHECK /var/scm/kernel/linux/fs/ecryptfs/file.c fs/ecryptfs/file.c:321 ecryptfs_unlocked_ioctl() error: potential NULL dereference 'lower_file'. fs/ecryptfs/file.c:335 ecryptfs_compat_ioctl() error: potential NULL dereference 'lower_file'.
