3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Dan Carpenter <[email protected]> commit 47ba9734403770a4c5e685b01f0a72b835dd4fff upstream. This patch moves the dereference of "buffer" after the check for NULL. The only place which passes a NULL parameter is gfs2_set_acl().
